UPEI’s Canadian Centre for Climate Change and Adaptation (CCCCA) in St. Peter’s Bay will host a public Open House on September 13, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.

Members of the public are invited to tour the 45,000-square-foot facility, which houses the UPEI School of Climate Change and Adaptation, the UPEI Climate Lab, and state-of-the-art research centres of excellence, including the Centre of Excellence in Food Security and Sustainability.

During the event, students will be present to speak about their research on food security, coastal adaptation, and climate change. Researchers will demonstrate how they measure greenhouse gases in soil. And the drones in the CCCCA’s drone port will also be on display.
