Clearing the Air is a permanent exhibit about air pollution, buses, and the evolution of engine technology and emission control.

Our task was to demonstrate complex scientific concepts to a young audience in a fun, learning environment.

We incorporated more than 15 interactive activities, ranging from a climb-in bus, to demonstrations of the mechanics of two-cycle and four-cycle engines. Kids learn about developing technologies, like fuel cells, and engage in thought provoking interactives about pollution control, in an environment that includes a parade of pollution cartoon characters.
