SUMMARY:Science Saturday: "Pulp: Non-Fiction"
DESCRIPTION:Do you wonder how people learned to make paper? There are many connections between water and paper making. Most paper is made from trees\, and trees need water. The process of paper making uses a lot of water and can create pollution\, so keeping rivers clean near paper making factories is important. We will investigate the history (including in Philadelphia) and science of paper making and you can make a piece of your own hand-made paper. \n(Sessions run every 30 minutes.)

SUMMARY:Science Saturday: "Pulp: Non-Fiction"
DESCRIPTION:Do you wonder how people learned to make paper? There are many connections between water and paper making. Most paper is made from trees\, and trees need water. The process of paper making uses a lot of water and can create pollution\, so keeping rivers clean near paper making factories is important. We will investigate the history (including in Philadelphia) and science of paper making and you can make a piece of your own hand-made paper. \n(Sessions run every 30 minutes.)
