Possible Solutions
Possible Solutions
For my goal, I had three possible solutions: a toilet, reusable water bottle, and a water filter. The toilet would be easy because people would have easier access to sanitation. The water filter would also be nice because you would always have clean water. Lastly, the reusable water bottle would be useful because you can always just refill it.
Prototype
Prototype
I chose a reusable water bottle for my prototype, it would come in handy, because you don't have to worry about throwing your water bottle away. It could also have a thermos, so the water stays cold.
