Then I put bubble wrap on top of the ice container. After that I put a layer of aluminum foil on the bubble wrap and then put cotton balls and extra styrofoam on top of the foil. The last thing I did was put duct tape on all of the cracks in the cardboard box. Conduction is a method of heat transfer, it can only be transferred…

There were only 20 piles (at most) and composting takes a few months, which suggests that not much compostable waste is going there. Furthermore, it means that much, if not most, of the waste is going to landfills from Cornell. Also, I was under whelmed by the lack of equipment they had to heat and…

To gather accurate data place the 28cm x 14.75cm clear, plastic box horizontally on a flat surface and placed the turned off lamp with the 60 watt light bulb 10 cm from right side of the box. Plug in the lamp with the light bulb screwed in, then turn it on and off two times to make sure the lamp worked and to minimize chance of error during the experiment. Then place the graph paper with one centimeter blocks inside the plastic box to be able to see and know exactly how far away the bugs got…
