Pod 3: Cars

In this Nuffield Foundation resource, students explore our relationship with cars and other forms of transport. They start by investigating some of the health and social problems associated with increasing car ownership. They move on to consider how innovative technologies could support more healthy and sustainable lifestyles. As a final challenge students need to present their vision of a sustainable closed loop transport solution. Background information can be found in the Nuffield STEM futures teachers' guide below.
