Xperimania chat to address use of petrochemicals
Author: EUN News

Are you able to live a week or even a day without using or coming into contact with petrochemicals? British science journalist Andy Brice took up the challenge and will share his experience with students on the next Xperimania chat “(Petro)chemicals – who needs them?” on 20 January 2009 at 11.00 CET.

Petrochemicals are the building blocks for most modern materials. Many of the objects you use, handle or wear daily could not be produced without them. Andy’s challenge wasn’t that easy to win.

Interested in taking part in the Xperimania chat (in English)? Schools can register by sending an email to xperimania@eun.org with the subject line “Xperimania chat”.
