CLIMATE CHANGE

If climate changes,
We can change too.

What is the greenhouse effect? Is it true that the earth is getting warmer? What causes climate change and what is the impact on our lives?

Come along to this thought-provoking science event where a group of young scientists – all finalists in our Greek FameLab Competition, which aims to discover new talent in the field of science communication – will present evidence and facts regarding the effects climate change has on our everyday lives.

As part of the event, our 'FameLabbers' will present interviews collected from archaeologists, farmers, biologists and environmentalists on the changes they have witnessed in recent years as a result of climate change, and will take your questions in a question and answer session.

There will also be screening of The Age of Stupid. Admission is free.

The event will be presented by:

Olympia Agalioti, medical doctor, FameLab 2008 winner
Anna Christodoulou, student in the Physics Department at Athens University, FameLab 2007 finalist
Giolanta Kogianni, PhD in Biochemistry, FameLab 2009 finalist
Sakis Litsios, student in the Biology Department at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, FameLab 2009 winner
Christina Melidou, MSc in Geology, secondary education teacher, FameLab 2008 finalist

Contributors:

Antony Kanouras, MSc in Robotics Engineering, FameLab 2008 finalist
Kostas Karpouzis, Associate Researcher, IVML National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), FameLab 2007 finalist
Menekse Sevimli, MSc in Chemical Engineering, FameLab Turkey 2007 winner

The event is part of our Beautiful Science Small Projects Scheme.
