Water industry is an important basic industry that affects every aspects of our lives. To introduce bio-process into original method, we need the approval of public and government. Those two different groups needs different information to accept our project. On this page, we summarize the efforts and thoughts relating to public acceptance and government approval.
Public Acceptance
What does public concern about a project like ours? Even though we didn't conduct any surveys, from our publicity experience the main concerns is safety and necessity. In this section, we focus on expanding the necessity research by graphing the data of water shortage in China.
Publicity in Science Technology Museum
On August 8, our team went to Shanghai Science and Technology Museum to reveal our idea to the public. IGEM teams invited to participate in the publicity activity included FDU, TJU, ZJU, SJTLU, NYU Shanghai, SJTU Software and our team.
We introduced iGEM, synthetic biology and our project. We tried to make our publicity popular and easy to understand in consideration of audiences’ biological knowledge level.
Figure 6.5.1 The Publicity Activity in Shanghai Science and Technology Museum
Communicating with a team member from FDU.
The publicity works, yet, not as good as we expected. When we summarize this activities, the main mistake we think we make is missing the why. Thus, the audience cannot connect to what we do. Based on that, we summarize the water shortage report of China.
Water shortage report
Generally speaking, China is now facing severe water problem, which is mainly about the lack of clean fresh water. Although China’s total water resource is temporarily abundant, whose quantity is about 2.8 trillion cubic meters, ranking the forth in the world. Water resources per capita equals to only one quarter of the world’s average (Li, S, 2009). Especially in Northwest China and North China, water problem is the most serious. As is shown in the colored map below.
