Ji'nan June 23rd news H7N9 bird flu came, dare not eat chicken? Buy, cooking, what do you need to pay attention to? Ginger news touch, ginger can eat? All said leek Vegetable pesticide residues are very high, but they want to eat leek dumplings, how to do...... When the new food safety incident was suddenly exposed, the first thought of Wang Shuying, 68, was to build a popular science museum in the new community on the 27 street in Ji'nan and ask the experts when to lecture. Wang Li, director of the neighborhood committee, said that through the district and municipal science and Technology Association, no more than two days, we can find the expert, "these experts are the Ji'nan Municipal Science Association unified connection scheduling, all have authority, they say, we believe." The reporter found that, in some communities in Ji'nan, the innovative form of the community science museum has become a new "position" to convey the knowledge of food safety and the concept of healthy diet.
The Science Museum of the new community is characterized by Chinese herbal medicine. Wang Li said that this is in line with the situation of the community, "residents are now particularly concerned about health preservation, and simple dietary therapy with Chinese herbal medicines is particularly popular." Every Thursday, the expert group will come to the popular science museum to teach the sources, functions and methods of common Chinese herbal medicine, and to help the residents to identify the authenticity of the Chinese herbal medicine and to pay attention to it. Under the guidance of the experts, Wang Shuying changed his portable tea cup into dandelion. "It is better than drinking tea." in March of this year, two "balcony small garden" courses were specially opened. Now, many community residents have planted leek, towel gourd, mint and so on in their own balcony.
the Food Safety Science Museum of Shun Hua community is also very popular. Since the opening of the museum last September, in addition to the daily popular science exhibition, the festival must have activities, this year "61" section, the science museum invited experts to say food additives, on the scene analysis, children only know that they like to eat a lot of snacks are really unhealthy. Young people in the community especially support their parents to the popular science museum. "It is very difficult to change the old people's ideas and habits. The experts say it is useful!" the 71 year old Han Lirong, who had been in bad health, had "believed" health care products. After repeated interpretations by the experts, the old man finally realized that the health care products could not replace the drugs, and could not buy and eat messy. Now, she practiced Taijiquan, stopped health products, and was not dizzy, and could also take her grandson out to play.
Han Yuanfu, chairman of the Municipal Science and Technology Association, said that at present, the demand for science popularization knowledge of urban residents is urgent, but the traditional popular science form is not easy to be accepted. By exploring the construction of the community science museum, a new way of science popularization for urban residents has been found. The "science popularization Museum of Chinese herbal medicine" and "food safety science museum" visited by reporters today are recognized by the China Association for science and technology in the community.
