Laval, February 26, 2025 – During spring break, the Armand-Frappier Health Museum is offering a series of fun and educational activities that highlight the links between climate change and human health. Through its exhibition *Ça chauffe! Cool it* and its creative and culinary workshops, visitors of all ages are invited to reflect on and take action for a more sustainable future.
Temporary Exhibition Things Are Heating Up! Cool It
The Museum Presents It’s Heating Up! Cool It, an exhibition that highlights the crucial link between climate change and human health. Combining science and art, this engaging exhibition invites visitors to reflect deeply on the importance of rethinking our relationship with the environment in order to protect our health and that of the planet.
Through the exhibition’s various sections and a hands-on activity, visitors have the opportunity to explore key scientific concepts in greater depth and discover how artist Karine Giboulo’s striking works illustrate the impacts of climate change on the health of our planet. This experience aims to inspire everyone to take action.
Laure Waridel, an eco-sociologist and spokesperson for the exhibition, emphasizes the importance of raising public awareness about the concrete effects of climate change on our health and of proposing accessible solutions for a more sustainable future.

An enriching and fun experience designed to spark scientific curiosity and stimulate the imagination of young explorers!
