By: Science North Members of the media are invited to the launch of the WHERE Challenge. Join us Tuesday, October 21st at 12 p.m. in the Nature Exchange on the second level of Science North. Local students will also be taking part in the event, exploring the Earth resources that are found in common household items. A scientist will also be on hand to answer questions about looming shortages across the entire Earth sciences sector. “We’re experiencing growing shortages across our entire profession,” “We hope you can join us as we launch this exciting national contest and kick-off National Science and Technology Week at Science North,” said Dr. David Pearson, Science North Science Director. “Inspiring young minds to discover science, and carry it with them throughout their lives is what Science North is all about. We are very excited to promote the opportunity to students and visitors as the WHERE Challenge fits perfectly with that goal.” For more information about the WHERE Challenge visit www.earthsciencescanada.com.
