Assignment 2 To Mr. Joseph J. Lhota Chairman and Chief Executive Officer MTA Transportation  From Research and Development Department HeadSubject Proposal to convert bus to Compressed Natural GasDate June 16, 2012Dear Sir; Considering the high cost of fuel and continuous degradation of our environment, we would like to propose a very good alternative from your current use of diesel and gasoline as fuel to your buses that is relatively more cost effective and environment friendly. The use of Compressed Natural Gas or CNG is already fast gaining acceptance among bus operators in the United States and elsewhere in the world due to proven savings in cost and ease of conversion.

The use of CNG as an alternative fuel will save your company thousands, if not millions of dollars in fuel cost because CNG costs way cheaper than fossil gas. Considering the volume of our consumption, the savings from a lowered fuel cost would surely enhance your bottom line. Conversion is also relatively easy because the conversion kit is readily available and can be easily installed. The conversion cost is minimal which can easily be defrayed by the savings in gas. In addition, the carbon emission of a CNG powered bus is way lower than fossil based fuel thus enabling us to not only help save the environment but also from hefty government fines of smoke belching.

Currently, most buses in the United States are already on CNG due to the above mentioned advantages. Should your person find interest in my proposal, I would be more than happy to discuss the details of the natural gas alternative and answer questions from you as well. Assignment 3. How to clean your bathroomHow does a person efficiently clean his/her bathroom?Cleaning one’s bathroom can be challenge. Sometimes we are just overwhelmed on the things that needs to cleaned (sink, toilet and tub/shower) that we do not know where to start.

We once tried cleaning it ourselves and it felt like it took forever just to clean it.The key to cleaning a bathroom however entails knowing what and how to clean it to be able to finish it quickly. The first step in getting it done efficiently is to remove things that do not belong in the bathroom. Things that are not supposed to be in the bathroom is what makes cleaning it seem to be a drag.One things that do not belong to the bathroom are removed (such as used shirt, trash, hangers, etch), it would be helpful to apply disinfectant and bleaching solution (zonrox) to the tiles, wall, faucet sink, toilet seat and its hole.

This will soften the grime and the dirt which makes cleaning more efficient. Leave the disinfectant and bleach for a while. Remove the toiletries and also put disinfectant on their areas.After few minutes, scrub the wall with a cleaning detergent first (I personally prefer Tide). They are easier to scrub with soap now because the bleaching solution melted the grimes. Then the faucet sink, the cabinets and the tub. Clean the toilet bowl last so that the disinfectant and bleaching solution will strip it first of its stubborn dirt and unmentionables.

After cleaning the toilet bowl, it is now time to scrub the floor. Once you are done, use your shower to spray water on the wall first, then the tubs, sinks and bowl. Lastly, spray and sweep the floor. Return the toiletries and you are already done.
