So where is the most polluted location within the UK. I will post the answer on Sunday.
well lets see. London is the biggest and was used as a port for a long time (less now, the containers are too damn big -;) )
Bristol, well I don't really know much about Brisstol, It is possible
Leeds, it is part a highly industrialised area, same for Birmingham. I would lean towards Birmingham
Glasgow, well it's just a slum ~;) ~:joker:
I say Birmingham
I know it isn't but I voted London as it does seem quite grimy. I haven't been to the others in a good few months/years so I can't give a qualified judgemnt, I live in London
Only lived in bristol out of those, i would guess london but that seems to obvious, ill go london.
London is by far, maybe not per sqare mile, but total pollution it is London.
That there is fighting talk :charge: :duel: ~;)Quote:

Taken from the June 2005 Which mag, the figures are concentration of particles in the air. The World Health Organization thinks particles pose the biggest health threat of all air pollutants
By 2010, the government wants the levels to be a max of 18 in Scotland, 23 in London and 20 in the rest of the country
Answers are as follows:
Birmingham 30
Buckingham Palace 29
Which office London 28
Leeds 27
Bristol 26
Cardiff 25
Brighton Pier 25
Manchester 24
Stonehenge 21
Lands End 18
Snowdonia 17
Balmoral 13
John o'Groats 12
What units are those measurements in?
particle levels in microgrammes per cubic metre
woo I win ~;) ~:cheers: ~:cheers:
Along with two other people :balloon2:
Is really pollution a large problem in UK ?
