Biogas Diagram

The core idea behind my diagram is to show the improvements on health and wellness brought about by the money generated from biogas. My diagram emphasizes the importance of the financial stability created by the biogas.As the biogas continue to be produced they will help to provide a more stable source of income. The video talks about the hardships faced by the children and women of India because of the lack of health and education. Women who sell the compost produced from the process were able to double their income. Farmers who used to compost on their crops were able to produce higher yields which results in a larger profit. My graph focuses on the how the money generated from the use of biogas improves the lives of many people. Focusing on the money generated is what makes my graph different from the graph presented in diagram 1.5. My diagram is similar to the diagram shown in figure 1.5 in that they both show how children are influenced by the biogas. I think there are similarities and differences in the two diagrams because there are many different perspectives to be taken with the presented situation.Comparing the two graphs provides the opportunity to see the benefits of biogas from different perspectivesbiogas_ars5930.jpg

  1. Hello! I really like that you made biogas the most emphasized part of your diagram. Putting it at the top, and having the social system and ecosystem stem from it was not something I considered. In my post,(http://geog030.dutton.psu.edu/2016/01/27/biogas-diagram-alex-deebel/) I separated the diagram by social system and ecosystem, which both led to biogas in the end. I also like that technology seems to be so important in your diagram. It truly is the source of most of the benefits in this lesson (the tank and methods for producing gas).

  2. Your posting was very similar to mine. I see you placed emphasis on the eco and social theme and went onto the true benefits of such a system. After taking a good look at this simple system it is truly amazing the fruits that is bears in such a rural local agricultural community. Thanks for your contribution.
