What is the carbon cycle
Students investigate and evaluate the development of new technologies to reduce pollution from combustion: catalytic converters, electric cars and fuel cells. Cradle to grave cycles of use are considered, such as the use of incineration of waste to produce electricity for transport.
Learning outcomes:
- Students must name technological developments for the reduction of pollution from public transport.
- Students could critically evaluate the information on different technological solutions to pollution due to transport.
- They should describe the natural carbon cycle and human contribution to this. Students should describe how some technological developments are able to clean up fuel emissions.
