"I am bothered by the "big box" science centers, $300 million dollar projects seem unnecessary. You could build 100 smaller science centers for the same $300M budget. My thinking behind Science Pop (science center in a box), has grown out of a need for community based science centers."

An amazing array of materials. For example, Ecor is a 100% USDA-certified bio-based material composite that ...transforms abundant, low cost cellulose fiber resources such as paper, newsprint, cardboard, or agricultural fibers into finished products. Ecor is both a flexible and durable material with a variety of potential applications across multiple industries, including interior design, exhibition design, theater, arts and crafts, and packaging.
