GET INVOLVED
Sign up to the CAPS Project!
Empowering students to tackle air pollution through citizen science and collective action. The CAPS Project aims to turn students’ apathy into action, empowering them take ownership when tackling issues around their local environments and communities.
Why Sign Up?
Children are the most vulnerable to the effects of air pollution. Here is why CAPS is important:
Visibility
Air pollution is an invisible problem – sensors and data make it visible and therefore beatable.
Education
Education is the most sustainable way to change systems and improve health in the long-term.
Community
Accountability among communities strengthens and empowers them to initiate change.
Learn New Skills
The CAPS Project teaches students new skills across the STEAM subjects that they can apply in later life.
“My favourite bit was the building, the assembling, because I didn’t know how to solder so that’s a new skill I learnt. Considering I’m also going to do D.T for GCSE, I think that’s going to be really helpful for later on. I also liked the coding because I’ve never coded in C, I’ve done a bit on python so now I’ve tried out C I know how different it is but I can see the similarities as well so that was really interesting to see.”
