Tangata Whenua
We are learning to identify the main ideas in what we read and to question to help increase our understanding
What was the main reason why the writer wrote this article?
- Stop pollution ?
His job:
James's job is to study problems caused by problems
Types of pollution:
- Factory smoke
- Rubbish
- Car smoke
Where he works:
Christchurch Lincoln university
Explanation:
Environmental scientists are scientists that are specialized to test and study problems caused by pollution and contamination. Pollution is caused by the dumping of rubbish, factory smoke and the smoke that comes from cars. Environmental scientists test contaminated water too, if there are less cockles and flounders in the sea, that is a sign that the water is contaminated. They gather data from the sea creatures, it is another way of testing the quality of the water if it is polluted.
