This project explores the complex interplay between human activities, animal populations, and natural resources, along with the impact of plastic pollution and potential solutions. It utilizes computational modeling and simulation to understand these relationships.
The project comprises several key components:
-
Fungi and Plastic Degradation Simulation: A model simulates the growth of a fungi population and its effect on plastic concentration over time, using numerical integration techniques.
-
Human-Animal-Nature Interdependence Model: A mathematical model represented by differential equations explores the co-dependence of human populations, animal populations, and the health of natural resources.
-
Sustainability Trackers: Python classes are provided for personal and industrial sustainability tracking, allowing users to log their actions and calculate the environmental impact of their habits.
-
Chatbot Training: Example code demonstrates how to train hypothetical chatbots (Claude and Jarvis) using a sample dataset of questions and answers related to sustainability.
The code simulates the growth of fungi that consume plastic. The simulation uses parameters that control growth rate, carrying capacity, and the rate at which plastic is consumed by fungi. The output visualizes the population of fungi and the remaining plastic concentration over time.
This section models the dynamic interaction between human populations, animal populations, and the state of natural resources. Differential equations are used to capture the growth and decline of these three components. The relationships among them are represented by coefficients that control the impact of each component on the others.

SustainabilityTracker
: A class designed for personal sustainability tracking. Users can log actions and habits like reducing plastic use or conserving water, and visualize their progress. -
IndustryImpactCalculator
: Calculates the carbon footprint of an industry, taking into account energy consumption, waste generated, and resources consumed. This class uses hypothetical coefficients to estimate the environmental impact.
The code demonstrates a simple training process for two hypothetical chatbots, Claude and Jarvis. The chatbots learn from a sample dataset of questions and answers.
The chatbot training uses a sample dataset (training_data
) of questions and answers related to sustainability, carbon footprints, human-animal interdependence, and industrial sustainability strategies. This dataset can be expanded and improved upon.
