The model matches real world data in terms of general trajectory, but not totally. There has to be modifications in terms of determining the real defect elimination rates, as opposed to ideal ones. That would make the model more accurate. However, for the purposes of understanding dynamics in goal seeking models, this is a good exercise.

If average defect elimination time is lesser, it leads to faster goal seeking. Any delay (>1 year) makes it impossible to seek the goal in realistic timelines.

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.

The model attempts to retrace the history of Easter Island from the time people first settled on the island i.e. 900 AD until 1600 AD.

Spring, 2020: in the midst of on-line courses, due to the pandemic of Covid-19.

With the onset of the Covid-19 coronavirus crisis, we focus on SIRD models, which might realistically model the course of the disease.

We start with an SIR model, such as that featured in the MAA model featured in

Without mortality, with time measured in days, with infection rate 1/2, recovery rate 1/3, and initial infectious population I_0=1.27x10-4, we reproduce their figure

With a death rate of .005 (one two-hundredth of the infected per day), an infectivity rate of 0.5, and a recovery rate of .145 or so (takes about a week to recover), we get some pretty significant losses -- about 3.2% of the total population.

We assumed that the total travel demand (yearly driven passenger units) shifts from private car ownership to CS services over a time of 20 years [1]. The possibility of buying a private car and a CS car is calculated by dividing the travel demand and the maximal travel demand possible, multiplied by the number of families without a private car respectively with the number of CS families. Private cars will abrade increasing the number of families without a car. However, in our model they will decide to join CS thereby increasing the number of CS families. By this the number of private cars will decrease while number of CS cars will increase. Gasoline CS cars will change over time into electric CS cars with a benefit for the CO2 emission due to lower lifecycle emission. Since CS cars are utilized more, they will abrade faster. However, this will overall result in more fuel efficient cars with another benefit for CO2 emissions.

Private Autos(100.000) Familien ohne private Autos(20.000) CS Familien(1.000) CS Autos - Benzin( 5.000) Bedarf private Autos(1.920.000.000 yearly passanger distance) Umstiegsrate(0.25) Kraftstoffeffizienz(0.15) CO2 emission of gasoline car(24 t CO2) [2] CO2 emission of electric car(19 t CO2)[2]

Thing to try (with influence on CO2 emission of CS cars):

Change the exchange-rate with which CS cars with gasoline motor are exchanged by electric motor  Change the fuel-efficiency of CS cars Both will influence the reduction of CO2 emission by CS cars

Extending the model:Demand for public transportation Would create a more realistic model since there are not only the options of having a private car or using CS.Public transportation could help reduce overall CO2 emissions.
