Global warming has led to melting of polar glaciers and serious environmental impacts to our earth. It is important for us to combat climate change and mitigate its impacts. With an aim to enhancing public awareness on climate change, the Environmental Campaign Committee, the Polar Museum Foundation, the Environmental Protection Department, the Hong Kong Observatory and the Hong Kong Science Museum jointly organize the 'Global Warming and Climate Variation' Seminar Series. Riding on the success of the first three seminars, the fourth public seminar cum exhibitions will be held on 23 October 2010 (Saturday), at the Lecture Hall of Hong Kong Science Museum. Professor Edward NG Yan Yung, School of Architecture, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, has been invited to share his knowledge and insights with the public in the seminar. Honorable guest speakers are also invited to share their views in 'Green Art, Green Architecture'. Besides, the exhibition will showcase a large number of precious photos taken by Dr. Rebecca Lee, founder of the Polar Museum Foundation, during her polar expeditions to illustrate the close relationship between climate change and the Poles.
