Science Museum’s New Gallery Tackles Climate Change with Imaginative Exhibits and Inspiring Ideas

The Science Museum has recently opened a new gallery called Energy Revolution: The Adani Green Energy Gallery. This gallery explores the world’s efforts to tackle climate change through various exhibits and interactive displays.

At the heart of the gallery is a moving sculpture called Only Breath, which measures 5m wide when unfurled. Visitors can also see part of the Zero Energy Thermonuclear Assembly (ZETA), a nuclear fusion experiment from the late 1950s.

The gallery is divided into three zones: Future Planet, which delves into complex computer-based models of future climate scenarios; Future Energy, which looks at different energy supply methods and reimagines them; and Our Future, which features imaginative ideas from children about how the world can meet its energy needs in the future.

Ian Blatchford, director of the Science Museum Group, expressed excitement about the gallery. “This stunning and inspirational experience aims to spark important conversations about sustainable energy use,” he said. “We hope it will engage and educate visitors on the pressing need to address climate change by transitioning to more environmentally friendly energy solutions.”

Visitors can explore exhibits on hydrogen, wind, and tidal energy, among others. They will learn about current efforts to transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources and what they can do to make a difference in their own lives.
