Description
Previously featured at COP26 in Glasgow, the mesmerizing “We Make our Future” show is all about engineering and sustainability!
Using full-dome digital projections, you will be taken on a trip to engineering marvels from history, followed by an exploration of the pros and cons of modern life.
Industry, technology, and invention have progressed civilisation, but how has this impacted the planet? What is climate change? And what can we do to engineer our way out of the climate emergency? These are all questions the show addresses, showing how you can be a positive sustainability influencer in your community.
The show will inspire you to think scientifically so you can positively approach the Net Zero challenge!
