Task 9
Through our experiences with our partners, we were able to get a better picture of what we really want to mention
We will make a cost comparison between normal cars and old-timers. This should address the following points in particular:
- Acquisition costs
- Maintenance costs (repair, refueling/charging, etc.)
- Stability of value
We want to better educate people about the environmental impact of electric cars and old timers in comparison.
Here it is important that the sources are detailed and valid in order to gain the trust of the readers.
Behind the question of how environmentally friendly are electric cars really, we would also like to bring into the light. However, it should also be noted here that the use of old-timers is steadily decreasing and increasing for electric cars.

Task 5
I am looking forward to the project. I hope this project can show the difference between electric cars and old timers.
Through our experts, I would like to expose and eliminate false beliefs about electric cars and old timers. Mario and I have also found that it depends very much on the duration of use and the place where you use an electric car (in which country).
What do you guys think is the vision of our project Oldtimer vs Ecars?
Task 3
(1) Names of collaboration team members:
Team from Wetzikon: Mario Anderegg and Joel Zürni
Team from USA Texas: Marios colegate of america
Team from Switzerland: Family Friend from Joel's family
(2) Diverse, e.g. material needed, expert proposals, difficulties:
- Medias to find experts in the field of electro cars
(3) Expert's comment:
No expert in the project
(4) Goal/Result:
Me and mario thought about the vacation which partners can answer our questions best and with which we can best come to the conclusion of our main statement. We knew that cars have an impact on the environment. But we kept asking ourselves what impact the different types of cars really have on the environment. We found the comparison between electric cars and old timers very interesting. It is always said that old timers have a worse impact on the climate than the "normal cars." Through the experience with old timers of our partners we learn what exactly makes an old timer and also more about the functioning of the different types of gasoline. We also learn that electric cars are only environmentally friendly to a certain extent.

Task 1
With whom?
collaboration partner 1: Daniel Gut, Friend of Joel's family, Owner of 2 Old timer
79er Continental Mark V
- Lincoln Continental Mark V «Collector’s Series» More...
What exactly is the effect that the group wants to trigger with its action?
Electric cars are considered by society to be enormously environmentally friendly and energy efficient.
But we set out to find out whether this is really true or whether a conventional combustion engine is not so bad after all.
What are the means by which the intended effect is to be achieved?
Through research and a specialist, we will investigate this question and come to a conclusion with confidence. A work colleague works in the car industry and can give us even more details about electric cars
How is this effect to be achieved?
- A few questions might be:
How harmful to the environment is the production compared to a gasoline engine?
How does it compare in use?
We also want to make comparisons with diagrams
Who is the target audience?
Our project is open to all. We also want to address especially people who have not thought much about the impact of cars on the environment until now.

Food waste has far-reaching and unnecessary consequences for animals, humans and our planet.
"In rich countries
7% of income is spent on
income on food, of which 30% ends up in waste."
"In developing countries
70% of income is spent on food, of which
3% ends up in waste."

- Food waste increase the issue of global food security because it increases the demand for food.
- The production of food requires large amounts of resources such as water, energy and soil, and pollutes the environment with exhaust fumes and chemicals.
exhaust fumes = Abgase
important and easy step to do something personally against foodwaste:
- Buy according to shopping list and only as much as you need
