Identify whether each statement below, relating to the CSI effect, is true or false.
In week 11 we met science-mad sisters Daisy and Celeste. Daisy is 7 years old, and Celeste is 5 years old. They are very energetic, love to be involved in everything, and are fascinated by anything that changes colour!
You've been asked to produce some content to communicate the air pollution information we've been considering to people like Daisy and Celeste.
Which of the suggestions below would be most likely to help them engage with and understand the topic?Here is the abstract from one of the air quality articles.
"There are local variations in the concentration of air pollutants that may not be captured by the existing monitoring networks; however, they can be important because this is where community exposures occur. Using low-cost monitors (LCM) located at relevant community locations, such as schools, can provide information on local sources, exposure and, with the participation of the community, can help to mitigate these problems. As such, this study was conducted to assess the outdoor air quality (PM and CO) at five schools in Queensland, Australia, over a period of one year using KOALA LCMs. The results allowed us to broadly conclude on the significance of local sources, such as to show that the majority of PM in the outdoor school environments did not originate from motor vehicle emissions, being more likely from other background sources such as bushfire smoke and surface dust. By comparing the data obtained by two KOALAs, one at the roadside and the other well away from roads, we estimated that only 37% of the PM near the road originated from motor vehicles. This contrasts with the known observation that, near busy roads, over 80% of particles by number originate from vehicle emissions. This study provides a model for further investigation and helps to improve the understanding of the importance of air quality among schoolchildren and the local communities."
