Climate ball
The Climate Ball is a sphere about three meters high. It provides information about climate change and collects opinions from passers-by on various measures for a sustainable society. The traveling exhibition visits public places throughout Switzerland, collects ideas and finds common denominators among the population. Admission free, open around the clock.
