8.0 Typography


In order to communicate my project well and ensure a consistent style is kept through out I will follow this post where I will be detailing the types of fonts and colours I will be using throughout the website.

Title:
The font I will use for my title will be 'Lobster' which I found and downloaded from dafont.com, I believe this font works well with the cartoon style I am going for and at the same time is bold and will catch the users attention.

The font that I will be using on the site is Times New Romance, it again gives a rounded and simple feel which is what I am trying to achieve, however if the user can not download/support the custom font the backup will be Times New Roman.

19.0 Permission to use OpenLitterMap

Image
After getting in touch with the creator of the OpenLitterMap service Sean Lynch been granted permission to embed the map within my project, I messaged him through LinkedIn, see the image below for the conversation. This is great news for me as the previous company I contacted were not so reluctant to help, despite it being for a good cause, which shows where their true intentions lye, capitalist's that do not really care about the movement. By presenting a solution by allowing the user to build and add to the open database on plastic pollution by incorporating the OpenLitterMap on my web-page at the end of the life cycle analysis of the plastic bottle. By earning Littercoints it will also give the user an incentive to use the OpenLitterMap service.

16.0 OpenLitterMap

Image
I took it upon myself to further look into the OpenLitterMap and what it is trying to achieve in order to determine if it would work well on my parallax website from an article on Medium from the author of OpenLitterMap he describes it as; "A Citizen Science Open Data Litter-Mapping Game with a Blockchain Reward that enables anyone, anywhere, to receive recognition for mapping and producing Open Data on plastic pollution. All data goes through a verification process to ensure its validity and upon verification, all data is made easily accessible for anyone to download and reuse for any purpose with the Open Database License, and all data is automatically analyzed by space, time, location and behaviour. And, users can receive a weekly payment in Littercoin (erc-20), which is “mined” by producing Open Data." (Medium, 2018) This is a very inovative use for block chain technology and also has a great purpose in that it is helping map out visually the plastic pollution  problem, ...

21.0 Reverse Vending Machine found in Istanbul

Image
Going back to the idea of mapping out the location of reverse vending machines, this is something that I really would like to implement into my project, as recently In Turkey, Istanbul, reverse vending machines have been installed in the metro stations, as where users of the metro can recycle plastic in order to top up their metro cards to travel. (Hürriyet Daily News, 2018) In the article it states " The newly installed machine is the first reverse vending machine ever to be installed in a metro station in Istanbul, but the project is expected to spread to other metro stations in the city soon. When a passerby inserts an empty plastic bottle, the machine’s sensor scans it to assess the size of the plastic: A 0.33 liter bottle will return 2 kuruş (one Turkish Lira is equal to 100 kuruş), a 0.5 liter bottle will return 3 kuruş, a 1 liter bottle will return 6 kuruş and a 1.5 liter bottle will return 9 kuruş."
