Celebrate World Water Day with us!
World Water Day is a themed day instituted by the UN that is observed on March 22 each year. The goal is to reach young people with information about water issues and arouse commitment to water-related problems.
This year the theme is "Glacier preservation" and at the Vattenhallen we draw attention to this through themed activities and a lecture by Börje Gunnevik, nature photographer and otter expert!
SATURDAY'S SHOW
At 13.00 p.m. Get to know the otter
Conservation efforts for otters include protecting their habitat, ensuring healthy ecosystems and reducing human impact. Addressing climate change is also critical to mitigating the long-term effects of glacier melt on both otters and their habitats.
Hear Börje Gunnevik talk about the otter in its different habitats and what is being done to preserve the species.
At 15.00 Air and water show
Join us when our students show about air and water! What happens to a marshmallow in a vacuum or to a balloon in liquid nitrogen? And what does a cloud feel like? You will learn that and much more in our Air and Water Show! ln.
