There was a point of discussion in today’s lecture that dealt with pollution in the air. It was questioned whether the pedestrians or the passengers inhale less pollution. The class came to different conclusions with various explanations for their choice; our group decided that theoretically, pedestrians breathe in more pollution due to car exhaust as compared to the passengers in the car.
