These principles, as well as respect for the environment and scientific knowledge that can tackle climate change, are also incorporated into its educational activities, such as educational programs “Explora‘ and ‘En-climatology» and in scientific films, such as “Earth’s climate” and “The Ocean Odyssey”, screened at the Planetarium and the Cosmotheatre respectively. Also, soon, the theme park ” ECOZOO” on biodiversity will be ready for the public.
