London Zoo Gathers Scientists at Speakers Corner

May 24, 2010 – 6:06 pmNo Comment

The Zoological Society of London (ZSL) is gathering together the UK’s leading scientific brains to talk at Speakers’ Corner. On Monday 14 June 2010, scientists will take to their soapboxes at the world’s most famous debating arena. They’ll be tackling three broad themes of Earth Evolution, Earth Challenges and Earth Solutions, but they’ll be expecting YOU to lead the debate.

Scientists at Speakers’ Corner will cut through the scientific jargon and give you the truth behind the headlines. So if you’re fed up of reading about ‘climategate’ and hearing that that the earth’s going to be swallowed up by a black hole created in Switzerland, join the debate to get the facts first-hand.

Science is all about asking questions – now it’s your turn!
Scientists at Speakers’ Corner: Monday 14 June 2010, between 12pm and 3pm. To find out more visit www.zsl.org/speakerscorner
