New Climate Change Exhibition Opens

April 17, 2008 - Staff

A new exhibition which takes an investigative look at aviation and its impact on climate change is set to open at London’s Science Museum next month.

On display will be the cutting-edge technologies that scientists are developing to make air travel more eco-friendly including models of futuristic aeroplane, lighter construction materials and advanced engine technologies.

The exhibition will be opened by Mark Ellingham, founder of Rough Guides, on 15 May in the Antenna science news gallery.

Holly Cave, Antenna Content Developer said,  “The aviation industry is often in the media spotlight as a contributor of emissions that cause climate change. But has it been unfairly singled out? What are scientists doing about the impact aviation has on climate change? And is there anything that passengers can do? This exhibition aims to answer these questions by clarifying the current situation so that visitors can make their own decisions.”

The exhibition is sponsored by EADS and will run for six months in the Antenna science news gallery from 15 May until November 2008.
