Climate Garden 2085 is a public science experiment that invites visitors to experience future climate scenarios firsthand. It’s an opportunity to imagine the impact of climate change in San Francisco at a human level. For the opening of the Climate Garden 2085 exhibition at swissnex San Francisco, we present talks from artist and science communicator Juanita Schläpfer-Miller. swissnex San Francisco is hosting an evening reception with drinks, music, and a talk by Juanita. Copies of her DIY guide, Climate Garden 2085, will be available. Juanita will also present in the afternoon at the Exploratorium’s monthly series Lab and a Lunch in the Bay Observatory at Pier 15, which concludes with a walkthrough of the exhibit.
