Pollution In Our Everyday Life

This is my third and final Action Project for my STEAM course Fuel. I learned about inequalities and pollution in our everyday life. For this Action Project, I had to make an action plan paper about how we can stop pollution from happening. My favorite part of this Action Project was learning about all the different ways we pollute and the solutions. I also really enjoyed taking a class trip to Tesla and getting a free test ride. This was a fun project to make and I enjoyed learning about the different ways to prevent pollution. The hardest part for me was researching the different ideas I had.

In my first  unit of my   STEAM course fuel, I learned about Chemicals, Elements, Periodic Table, and PVC. For this Action Project, I looked at natural gas consumption and estimated what it will be like for this year. It took a lot of work including redoing some steps over and over, but I got it done. I thought it was really cool to do this action project and to realise how much energy we use. The only trouble I had was making the charts, and making the predictions. I enjoyed this project a lot, I thought it brought out a different side of me.
