Martin, Linda and Mr. Act star in science cartoon for young and old alike

A great dream come true, that of the Science for Peace programme narrated in 120″ thanks to a cartoon that in 8 large plates (50 x 70 cm) will illustrate, from the constitution in 1958 to today, values and projects linked to science for peace.

Up to the present day with some characters who will live the project actions of REACT in a rigorous and funny way. Martin, a gullible and chatty mobile phone operator, Linda a punctilious and knowledgeable control unit and Mr. Act, wisely called to mediate on what Martin and Linda say and measure.


The testing step starts for the six REACT stations

The six REACT stations have been installed near one of the Venetian ARPAV monitoring station.

This first step will allow Italian scientists from Ca’ Foscari to test the instruments and to validate the correct functioning of the installed sensors. During the next testing month, the six monitoring stations will register lots of information about the environmental conditions: atmospheric pollutants (PM 1, PM 2,5, PM 10), the ambient noise, the nitrogen dioxide and the sulfur dioxide. Other important measurements will be about the wind speed and direction, humidity and temperature.

All those information will be crucial for the REACT project: after the first testing step, units will be ready to be installed in various places in Venice.
