So a bunch of ppl have already posted what they found interesting at the Academy of Sciences ...
1. Queena actually mentioned one of the things I was looking at which was the materials used to build the Academy. Most of it was reclaimed materials or materials manufactured within a certain mileage of the building site, reducing long distance transportation. It even uses reclaimed greywater to flush its toilets.
2. The other thing I found interesting was reading some of the information in the Climate Change in California section. Throughout the earth's history there have been 5 mass extinctions and we are now living through the sixth.
