Why Freshly-Cut Grass Smells Like That // Fun Facts #2

6 months overdue but I finally had the time/motivation to film another video!!! In this episode, I explore what causes the smell of freshly-cut grass, and why it smells so bloody good. What? 🎥 A channel where I share cool science facts, explain maths and engineering concepts, and anything else I find interesting! Who? 👩‍🎓 An Imperial College Biomedical Engineering student with a passion for procrastination via seemingly-productive activities such as filming YouTube videos. Why? 🛠 Partly because I was bored, and partly because I think science communication needs more female voices.
