We could not afford to buy the pollution measuring technology so instead we did Forest School. Going to nearby Forests and learning now amazing they are-from growing mushrooms to sucking in the "bad gasses".
Trees after all are the " free magic machine that grows itself and sucks bad gas out of the air" -George Monbiot
All COVID safety guidelines as defined by the HSE will be followed.
Every Monday from 2.45 to 4.30pm Ballybrack Climate Action will be teaching a climate action class to the "Peas In A Pod" aged 10-13 years.
Attached is the week by week teaching and activities plan.
Our action plan is to measure pollution from cars in our community so that we can encourage people to walk, cycle instead of individual cars.
We live in an area where a huge volume of cars go at speed through our locality. We would love to know what pollution that gives off.
Covid 19 Safety Plan:
Following all public health guidelines. We will advise people not to attend the event if they have symptoms of Covid-19 or feel unwell in any way.
We will spend the funding on equipment , and community information signs for the trees.
