| Footbridge is undertaking a study on a pollution sensitive tree. Japanese Cedar. This tree has been used in previous studies looking at the relationships between pollution and respiratory problems. It is known that a very close relationship exists between the stunting of growth of these trees and the degree of industrial pollution, that is in this instant, Jet Exhaust. The Prices Road area has a belt of Japanese Cedar dissecting the immediate flight path of approaching Jets. This is adjacent to the future site of the training track. It is obvious at this stage that these trees are stunted and bare no comparison to trees of similar age and grown in similar soil structures, grown outside the Prices Road environment. Professor W. Tyler, retired from the Davis University Veterinary School in California has communicated with us and will be sending copies of his work in regards to pollution in the thoroughbred Horse in the near future. |
