Then you must mold the iced water into the form you want. Finally, you must solidify the new form (refreeze). TOYOTA is a good example.

The aim of force field analysis is to investigate the balance of the pros and cons that are created from the implementation of a plan or decision.
Besides, it is to show the obstacles that hinder a plan so that a company can plan on how they can reduce these challenges. Lastly, it helps to estimate the amount of time and resources that are required to complete a change. With the rapid development of the automotive industry, environmental and energy issues have become increasingly severe. To solve these problems, the urgent need to develop high-performance environmentally friendly vehicles. In order to solve the increasingly serious energy and environmental problems, Toyota has always been committed to reducing oil consumption and emissions of "saving oil" technology and to promote, expand electricity, hydrogen and other new energy use and popularization of "get rid of oil" technology both go hand in hand The "comprehensive" energy conservation, new energy and environmental strategies. Due to the rapid growth of car ownership in developing countries led to a sharp rise in global demand for petroleum fuels, fuel oil people began to worry about whether a steady supply. It is
