1/6 🌍 Today is #CleanAirDay, and I am so thrilled to have spent my morning at @HBInfants School interacting with the children the power of science and technology in combating air pollution! This was covered by @itvcalendar on tv tonight at 6pm. A thread πŸ‘‡ #AirQuality Image
2/6 πŸ§ͺ The highlight of my day was interacting with these bright young minds and introducing them to the world of air pollution sensors. Their questions on how the sensors work were a pleasant reminder of the curiosity and wisdom that comes with youth. #STEMEducation
3/6 πŸ€” One intriguing question was, "Why this specific school?" Well, Hunters Bar Infants School serves as a living example of how proactive measures can mitigate the effects of air pollution on a local level. @HBInfants #LocalHeroes
4/6 🌿 The green barrier around the school a research project of @MariCarmenRB3,' is a testament to this. Composed of a mix of Ivy Conifers amongst others, this barrier has negated air pollution levels by up to 14-25% (NO2)! mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/2… #GreenSolutions
5/6 🌳 This initiative goes beyond merely physical health. This green oasis within the city is a haven for mental well-being. It's like a constant, visual reminder of the balance between urban growth and environmental preservation. #MentalHealthAwareness
6/6 πŸ“ΈAnd let's not forget - it's absolutely stunning! As we celebrate #CleanAirDay, let's take inspiration from the efforts at Hunters Bar School and strive for more green spaces, cleaner air, and a healthier future for all. Together, we can make a difference! #AirPollutionAware
