impacts of climate change.
The blueprint
To start, we will focus on designing inventions for
climate change issues such as:
Water
pollution
Air pollution
Rising sea levels
& flooding
Rising sea levels and flooding cause
major impacts for people all around
the world.
There have been some creative and
innovative ways to deal with rising
sea levels and flooding.
For example, this house in England
was designed to float when the river
next to it would flood during winter.
The whole house would rise up with
the water and then back down again
as the water returned to the river.

Air pollution
Air pollution from factories and cars
cause major health problems for us all .
There have been some creative and
innovative ideas to help deal with air
pollution. For example, artist Matt
Hope created an air filtration system
on his bike.
This meant Matt could filter bad air into
clean air to his helmet while cycling.
With each bike ride Matt would be
catching toxins in the air with his bike
and turning it into clean air.

Water pollution
Water pollution causes major impacts
for people and animals all around
world, especially for those of us living
in the Pacific Ocean.
There have been some creative and
innovative ideas to help deal with
water pollution.
For example, the ‘sea bin’ was
designed by Australian surfers
Andrew and Pete.
The sea bin draws in rubbish floating
in the water. The water exits back into
the ocean while rubbish gets trapped
to later be collected.
