We know our kids and young people are concerned about the future of our planet 🌏 But after a session with Rebecca Green (Dr Becky) and Sally Giblin, positive emotions about the future soared from 15% to 93% when design met science in a Western Sydney classroom. An innovative STEM experience called ‘The Future is Electric’ ⚡️turned UNSW research (like Sunswift Racing), community innovation and First Nations energy projects into interactive floor games, holograms, and cardboard prototyping sessions where students designed their own positive energy futures. Its first outing saw Year 5/6 students at Toongabbie Public School explore renewable-energy futures through hands-on imaginative play, and a little speculative design magic! The experience was created by UNSW ADA’s Rebecca Green (Dr Becky) and climate-educator Sally Giblin (Be The Future and ADA alumna), and they hope to bring ‘The Future is Electric’ into more classrooms in 2026.
