Task 4: Identify 5 features you could include in your station
which will help to limit environmental impact.
Write these down and explain which
environmental problem they will help to reduce.
An example has been given for you:
Eco featureExplanation of how this
will limit environmental impact
Outside of the station I will
include space to store and
secure a number of bikes
This will encourage users to cycle to the station
instead of using their cars. This will reduce CO2
emissions which
Come from the exhausts of cars. CO2
contributes to poor air quality and is one of the
gases which is destroying the ozone layer
leading to global warming. Cars run on petrol
which is made from oil. This is a finite resource
which is running out.
