Originally built as the US pavilion for the 1967 World Expo, the Biosphère was covered by an acrylic bubble that burnt away in 1976. Now the massive geodesic dome contains a museum that is aimed at educating people about the environment and global warming. In the 10 years since its opening in 1995, Environment Canada's Biosphère has been a showcase for environmental education focusing on climate change, and the sustainable development of the Great Lakes - St Lawrence ecosystem.
