A focused A-Level AQA Geography Contemporary Urban Environments case study examining how green infrastructure can improve environmental conditions and urban livability.
Students investigate changes in a densely built-up Central District between 2010 and 2025 following the introduction of street trees, green roofs, permeable paving and small urban parks.
The resource includes:
A clear before-and-after urban environment figure
Three AQA-style exam questions worth 4, 6 and 9 marks
Comprehensive mark schemes
The figure includes clear evidence of change, including green space and tree cover increasing from 14% to 31%, mean summer afternoon temperature falling from 31.8°C to 29.4°C, peak storm runoff declining from 74% to 49% of rainfall, and annual mean PM2.5 concentration falling from 28 to 19 µg/m³.
Students progress from outlining reasons for higher urban temperatures, to explaining how green infrastructure modifies environmental conditions, before assessing the extent to which it can make urban areas more sustainable and livable.
Designed specifically for AQA A-Level Geography (7037), this resource is ideal for lessons, homework, independent revision or exam-question practice on Contemporary Urban Environments.
