About Us
"We want everyone to be very hopeful and to have a really positive outlook for the future," senior exhibit designer Dorian Juncewicz tells CBS Boston of the new Innovation Earth exhibit at Boston's Museum of Science.
The exhibit, part of the museum's year-long "Earthshot" theme, focuses on solutions to climate change, including carbon capture, more green space, and the benefits of oysters on a coastline.
"These are our future engineers and scientists of all kinds," says exhibit coordinator Katharina Marino.
"These kids that come here and visit us, they are the ones that are going to be changing the future."
The Boston Globe has a video tour of the exhibit.
