Parc Jean-Drapeau: Environment Museum

parc jean-drapeau: The Biosphere has housed an environment museum run by the federal Environment Department since the 1990s, according to National Observer. It bills itself as the only environment museum in North America, exclusively dedicated to exploring things like meteorology, climate, and water and air quality. You can also learn how scientists predict future temperatures, why global warming doesn't make the planet warm everywhere all at once, and how climate change hurts human health. ; The exhibit, called Plus one degree Celsius is at the Montreal Biosphere, a geodesic dome in Parc Jean-Drapeau on le Sainte-H l ne. But the government's lease is set to expire on Dec. 31, 2019 and its future is uncertain. Another idea is to turn the Biosphere area into a kind of spa, with a new recreation and health centre including yoga, outdoor baths, massage therapy and a terrace. There are competing visions over the area's future, and maintaining the site as an environmental museum is only one option being considered. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
