WORK PLAN

We were supposed to take the temperature of a ruraand an urban area.

Since our school is located in a rural area, we decidethe temperature of the school.

Each of us took the temperature of the school from August to 30thSeptember, 3 times a day.

We took the temperature of Kakkanad as it is an urb

CONCLUSION

By analysing this data, we cunderstand that there is atemperature difference of at

one degree between urban aand rural areas.

Causes Of This change inTemperature

The factors that affect this change temperature are:

The morphology (shape)of the buildthe walls and roofs of the buildin

The glass panels which are fitted in

buildings of cities, reflect the sunligh

since there is less space between builthis heat gets trapped and increases

heat of the surrounding area

The increasing number of vehicles andindustries in urban areas

has led to an increase in CO2 emissiontraps heat leading to an increase

temperature.


19/33

With a decreased

amount of vegetation, cities also lose

shade and cooling effect oftrees, the low albedo of their leaves, an

removal of carbon

dioxide.

Urban Heat Islands

An urban heat island (UHI) is ametropolitan area that is significant

warmer than its surrounding rural ar

due to human activities.

SOLUTIONSThe heat island effect can be counterac

slightly by using white or reflective matto build houses, roofs, pavements, androads, thus increasing the overall albed

the city.

A second option is to increase the amoof well-watered vegetation. The treesreduce the concentration CO2 in the athus reducing the temperature.


29/33

Green roofs are another method ofdecreasing the urban heat island effec

Green roof system is the practice of havegetation on a roof; such as having tra garden.


30/33

Carpooling :- By using buses and othermodes of public transport helps in redu

CO2 emissions. This helps in reducing ttemperature of an area

The government also must not sanctionconstruction of tall buildings.

Man himself is the cause of this cha

temperature.So, only he can undo this by followingsolutions .

Let us have a society where we can encoolness of nature even if we are in a c
