The climate is changing now there are no more doubts. The high temperature, the melting of glaciers are just some of the increasingly extreme weather phenomena, a symptom of a planet that is changing its climate and the only person responsible for this change is man.
On the occasion of COP 26, the United Nations climate conference in Glasgow, in Città della Scienza, on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 November, a series of activities will be in place to properly inform and therefore raise awareness among visitors of the interactive museum of Città della Scienza, on virtuous behavior in the environmental field.
During the activities, carried out in collaboration with Le Nuvole Scienza, physical phenomena will be tested in the “Choose your climate” laboratory and interesting information on the Earth of the future will be available during the interactive lab “Year 2148″.
Città della Scienza will also host Partenoplay, the game festival for all which is an initiative proposed by the Department of Social Policies of the Municipality of Naples and is part of the “A city to play” project, created in collaboration with Ludobus Artingioco – Progetto Uomo social cooperative, with the participation of numerous Neapolitan and Campania recreational realities. In this festival, both Saturday and Sunday visitors are invited to play “seriously”, to give the game the right scientific and pedagogical importance and for the dissemination of a healthy and responsible play culture.
Finally, the public will also be able to try their hand at the Borbone Kids Lab “La posa non riposa” in collaboration with Caffè Borbone, which aim to develop children’s creativity through new ways of artistic expression.
As always, it will be possible to take guided tours of the museum of the Human Body and attend the extraordinary shows at the Planetarium.
PROGRAM
CHOOSE YOUR CLIMATE – Science Show
A series of experiments conducted by the communicators of science of Le Nuvole will highlight the physical phenomena linked to climate change and the calculation of the ecological footprint will allow us to understand the role of human actions in those changes.
Target: from 7 years old
Reservation at the Corporea infopoint
YEAR 2148 – interactive lab
What will the Earth of the future be like? Together with science communicators from Le Nuvole we arrive in 2148, when the Earth is now a difficult place to live, the sea level has submerged many cities, acid rain falls from the clouds, the Sun no longer warms our world sufficiently, most living species are on the verge of extinction and all this because of man. What happened? What phenomena have led to such a radical change on our planet? How will the species that caused all this survive?
Practical actions and concrete initiatives to discover the effects of a changing climate.
Target: from 7 years old
Reservation at the Corporea infopoint
