Yeah and to expand on that why more kids have allergies and get sick! Because there not exposed to anything. I’d rather have a big room full of dirt than support any drug company!
I’m excited to see what becomes of the Innovations area, but I would really like to see Disney bring back a biology-related pavilion such as it had with Wonders of Life. There is so much development in this area, and I struggle to see why it would be difficult to find a large pharmaceutical company to sponsor the pavilion. Since Wonder of Life closed, the growth in understanding from basic immunology, targets identified via the human genome project, cell and gene therapies that now can provide curative treatments have all been incredible advances that can be showcased in unique and fun ways.
Welcome to Microbio 450 kids!
That would be really interesting.
They could have very informative lectures with cool 3D visuals such as;
Flu Shots, Prevention or Myth!
To clone or Not to clone!
The 1/2 life of antibiotics!
I feel the overhaul always steers away from the original plan of EPCOT. Why not keep the classic rides and then expand on them? For example the World of Motion could have stayed in place and expanded to Test Track. Expand on Universe of Energy, give it a facelift. The Dinosaurs have to remain a great attraction and a step into our current climate changes. Although I like a thrill ride as much as the next person, but I feel that is getting to be the theme of all rides in all amusement parks. I also like an informative/educational yet entertaining ride, such as Spaceship Earth, Journey Into Imagination. Let’s not lose sight of the classics, please keep history a part of the parks.

I totally agree on this.
The history of transportation became a thrill ride.
A study in Human Biology became a home for wayward rats.
Thank goodness we still have some oceanography (sorry but putting Nemo in there was stupid, wrong park), agriculture, space exploration, energy and human thought processes including Imagination.And bring back Off Kilter whilst your at it!
I keep seeing in blog posts about the pending demise of Ellen & Mission Space… and usually tied to it is mention of a GotG coaster ( :hmmph:
).Watching Miles from Tomorrowland with the kiddos yesterday, the episode brought up an idea, that would be an acceptable EEA (UOE) replacement. It would tie in a Disney franchise, have thrill appeal and kid appeal.
The episode featured floating desks in the classroom. Why not a slightly less-intense version of Universal’s Harry Potter ride, themed on Miles from Tomorrowland, where you are in a class with floating desks that teach about energy?

Oh how I hope that’s just a rumor! I love GotG but it has no place at EPCOT! I think that’s a great idea!
@PA_Timekeeper, I would love to. However, I have heard from a few sources that Disney does not accept ideas from the general public unsolicited, and it is a pretty surefire way to never see what you are hoping to.
If you (or anyone else for that matter) have more accurate info than I do, on if/where/how to submit that idea, PLMK. I will do all in my power to get that in!
