Abstract
The world has continuously been degraded by carbon emissions, deforestation, and many other human activities. These actions negatively affect the Earth by raising the average temperature and sea level while destroying entire habitats. As inhabitants of Earth, it is our duty to mitigate our impact so we can decrease further affliction. The home someone lives in can account for 66% of the polluting emissions given by that individual. This Thesis will create a system of parts that can be built onto an existing site or built as the building of the site. Both can be designed for multiple climates. The parts will add a renewable source of energy that is present in all climates and often goes unused. The product will also offer climate-specific harvesting techniques to decrease our impact further. The parts will do so without a negative impact on living for the tenants.
