This model demonstrates sustainable recycling and the effects it has on the environment as well as us. We modelled this using realistic statistics and estimates from gridwatch.ca and the Ontario Baseline and Waste & Recycling Report (2023).
[Purple]: Metal demands on a region and the associated environmental and economic factors of production and recycling.
[Pink]: Demand of total residential household and business waste and energy demands on the system.
[Green]: Physical waste produced by human activity in the region.
[Teal]: The outflow of energy produced through waste recycling and its impact of energy production and demand in the region. The Durham-York Energy Center (DYEC) is a facility that combusts garbage into energy which is highlighted in teal, which accumulates with energy produced.
[Orange]: Total energy produced through all means of power generation including modelling of the impact that recycling waste has.
[Yellow]: Carbon emissions of energy generation from energy production methods. (Excluding Wind & Hydro)
Overall, this model examines and compares waste accumulation to energy production and the release of emissions.

This model illustrates predator prey interactions using real-life data of wolf and moose populations on the Isle Royale.
We incorporate logistic growth into the moose dynamics, and we replace the death flow of the moose with a kill rate modeled from the kill rate data found on the Isle Royale website.
I start with these parameters:
Wolf Death Rate = 0.15
Wolf Birth Rate = 0.0187963
Moose Birth Rate = 0.4
Carrying Capacity = 2000
Initial Moose: 563
Initial Wolves: 20
I used RK-4 with step-size 0.1, from 1959 for 60 years.
The moose birth flow is logistic, MBR*M*(1-M/K)
Moose death flow is Kill Rate (in Moose/Year)
Wolf birth flow is WBR*Kill Rate (in Wolves/Year)
Wolf death flow is WDR*W

This is a clone of "Fast Fashion ISCI 360 Solutions Final submission" created by user "V B" which we are using as the foundation for an exercise in the DTU course 12100 "Quantitative sustainability".
The model takes into account clothing production and textile waste on a global scale while incorporating Vancouver's own "Fast Fashion" issue into the model.
Please refer to the notes for each variable and stock to see which links were hidden from the model.
Part 2: Our solution for the issue surrounding "Fast Fashion" focuses on increasing individuals education about sustainability and how they can help reduce negative impacts on the environment by shopping less, recycling and donating. This effect of education on sustainability is seen in the "Online Shopping" equation where the impact of "Education on Sustainability" is increased by x1.5 which impacts the entire model. Furthermore, components of the feedback loop on the right are also influenced by increasing education on sustainability and thus, those values were altered accordingly. These values were chosen arbitrarily by taking into account that doubling any value is not realistic so the change should be between x1.0 and x2.0.
