Pontos fortes: a visão do/a compilador/a ou de outra pessoa capacitada
  • it will help to conserve the energy with the promotion of better environment. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Bio-gas production should be adopted by all the communities.)
Pontos fracos/desvantagens/riscos: visão do usuário de terracomo superar
  • Size of safety tank is too big. They cannot fulfill the requirement of the tank. Small tank should be constructed.
Pontos fracos/desvantagens/riscos: a visão do/a compilador/a ou de outra pessoa capacitadacomo superar
  • Methane released cause global warming.
    Cannot use chemical in toilet,because it cause environmental hazards. Approach should be well-constructed.
