The field trip to the museum of science was very interesting, this food photography show was the first that catches my eyes. An unique way to portray our most familiar food.

The energy exhibition was quite inspiring, they introduce many different kinds of eco-friendly energy source. Including cow waste, solar energy, and wind. The installation also discusses about how much more energy that human being are demand in next decades, it will increased a lot.

 

This panel is very helpful, it explains the difference and characteristics of each energy source. 

This graph is nicely explains that our dominant energy source is still coal, which is not efficient and sustainable enough. I’m very happy to see that other energy source are in the developing stage. I believe along with the improving of technology, the renewable energy will become the majority of this graph in the future.

The following panels are answering some very popular questions, and it helps me to understand some problems that has been bothers me for quite while. For example, why doesn’t the U.S. rely more on nuclear energy? We all know that nuclear energy is very efficient and has less waste produced and release in the atmosphere. However, U.S. government thinks the radioactive element is very harmful and it’s not worth to expand the nuclear energy industry, since it’s not worth to risk people’s health to improving technology. But I do understand Japan has to rely on their nuclear energy heavily, each country has different policy and strategy on energy resource because of their different background and geographical reasons.
