Choose how to protect your environment day by day
We move beyond the traditional view of Britain as a green and pleasant land and tour the edges of the British Isles, to explore our relationship with our environment. We all have an interest in sustaining the world’s resources. Yet we are reluctant to adopt ways of living which reduce our freedom and quality of life. This zone considers the choices open to us, showing how small changes in lifestyle, multiplied collectively, can make a large impact on the future.
Living Island takes visitors on a journey to a typical British seaside resort, complete with beach, fish and chip stall, deck chairs, sun and sea. All is not as it seems, and far from ‘getting away from it all’, visitors can see what they can do to make a difference to our environmental future through everyday choices. In a funfair and pleasure beach setting, visitors try out games, contests, rides, trials of skill and strength. The tone is intriguing and positive for adults, and hands-on fun for kids. This is the environmental challenge as it has never been seen before — to engage the hearts and minds of visitors of all ages.
