(Harrisburg) -- Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts in Harrisburg has unveiled an program aimed at teaching kids and adults about the Chesapeake Bay Watershed called "Expedition Chesapeake". The $10 million project will include an IMAX film, an interactive website, a traveling science exhibit and a documentary series all about the Chesapeake Bay. Michael Hanes, Whitaker President and CEO, says the program will work to educate the public about the challenges the bay faces and how they can help improve its health. "There are a number of issues that have had an impact on the environmental health of the Chesapeake Bay," he says, "and part of that is water pollution, but part of it is also climate change and the warming of the environment, and change in the sea level and the impact that that's had on the bay itself." Hanes says he hopes the initiative will provide educational resources for the 17 million people who live in Pennsylvania and the five other states and District of Columbia that make up the watershed. He says one goal is to get school groups involved in testing water quality and other environmental factors in their particular region and have them share their findings with other students in the watershed through the website. Hanes says the website could be online as early as September, and the IMAX film is expected to be complete by spring 2013.
