On Wednesday 20th November, year 5 wanted to investigate pollution on Hammersmith Road and its effects on the area. We also wanted to know how well kept it is. First, we went around the block and did a tally on how many cars, buses, bicycles, vans, lorries and motorcycles we saw. The purpose of observing the traffic was to see how much pollution there was. After that, we did another tally on how many people. This information is useful because the more people who are in shared cars, and not individual cars, are better for the environment because there’s less pollution. Then we did a tally on our area quality. We discovered that there are more areas which are cleaner than others.  Later we took a few pictures then came back.  Overall, it was a great experience to learn about the impact people have on their environment.
