Charlotte Smith, giving personal ‘EV Thank You’ note to EV owners and driver
The story of a school girl who inspired from her science paper and became a protagonist of EVs around the world
EV Thank You: Generally it takes time for all of us to take out some practical knowledge out of our school books. Or sometimes we relate the current situation with the information what we read in our school time subject book. But this was not the case with Charlotte Smith. She was just 10, studying in St Alphege Church of England Junior School, Solihull (England).
Turning point
Charlotte was trying to figure out why she kept getting the bad cough whenever she walk around the back of any vehicle. She decided to do some research. For the same purpose she chose to work on a primary school science project in her school. That time she was just 10 year old.
With the help of her father, Charlotte accumulated all the data related to the air-pollution, its cause and impact on society. She completed the science project on the topic of “Benefit of Electric Vehicles” and submitted in school.

Charlotte’s father said, “I think it is so special as nowadays people don’t get a free thank you – there is always something attached to it. It’s lovely to see the surprise on people‘s faces when Charlotte hands them this thank you card for doing something that they may not have even thought about.”
