Field trip/ Networking event

I went to an event “Art, Design, and the Great Energy Transition” on Saturday, September 15, 2018 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. the event was at Pershing Hall on Governors Island. I went with my friend Reem, and it was marvelous, I found out that the event is about “The Energy Duck”. So we stayed on the event of the energy duck and the designers were talking about it.

 

“So much more than just a duck! Energy Duck is an entertaining, iconic sculpture, a renewable energy generator, a habitable tourist destination, and a celebration of local wildlife.” (Energy Duck – Land Art Generator)

“The common eider duck resides in great numbers in Copenhagen; however, its breeding habitat is at risk from the effects of climate change. Energy Duck takes the form of the eider to act both as a solar collector and a buoyant energy storage device.” ( Energy Duck – Land Art Generator).
