The Science Museum plans breakthrough climate gallery

It’s hard to argue with the increasing evidence for the existence of climate climate change. We’ve known that polar bears have been drowning due to the thawing of ice sheets in the arctic since 2005. However, there are still a large number of sceptics to the presence of distinct changes to the climate of the Earth.

Enter the Science Museum, London. As of November 2010, it will have a new gallery build for the purpose of displaying accurate and up-to-date information about the science of climate change. With a supporting programme of events to add new focal points and in depth study, the climate gallery will immerse visitors in an interactive experience that will dynamically respond to visitor actions and choices.

The £4m climate gallery will be situated on the second floor of the Science Museum, accompanying the relaunches of the Who am I? and Antenna galleries, which are set to open again in June 2010.

The gallery will contain displays on the climate changes of the past, the work that scientists are doing to mitigate the effects of climate change and scientific predictions for climate change in the future.

With support from Shell and Siemens, major funding from the Garfield Weston Foundation, and with additional support from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, along with the Patrons of the Science Museum, the climate gallery will be a great resource for increasing awareness and knowledge of climate change.
