Life Science Centre has an experiment for you to try at home to learn more about ocean acidification. The increasing amount of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere is making our oceans more acidic, which is affecting the creatures that live in the water.
Life Science Centre are bringing you climate action activities to try at home! Have a go at creating your very own homemade oven made of recycled materials and harnessing solar power!
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to design your own transport of the future. What will it look like? How will it be powered?

This video gives a brief summary of solar power. Solar power is a type of renewable energy, which means it is energy made from resources that nature will replace. In the case of solar power, we are creating electricity from the Sun’s energy and the…
Throughout history, humanity’s survival has depended, in part, on our ability to adapt to natural fluctuations in our environment. And now, as our planet faces unprecedented shifts in the climate, it has never been more important for us to change with it. While global efforts…
Join Professor Eric Wolff on his field trip to the snowy wonderland of Antarctica. In this short film we follow Professor Wolff and his team as they drill 650 metres into the West Antarctic ice sheet, unlocking the secret of Earth’s past climate, and allowing…
