Would people be happy to drink water that has been recovered from sewage directly?
Do we know or care what...
How fast is London
Students use data from different websites to calculate the average speeds for various types of transport and represent these in graphic form to be able to see the relationship between the equation for speed and the slope of a distance time graph. They will begin to discover the concept of relative motion between...
How is London tap water different
As London approaches 9 million people we not only have to consider where we get enough clean water to drink but also how we get rid of the waste, and recycle water for drinking and other uses. London is described as a water-stressed city and scientists and technologists need to be very creative to overcome issues...
