My World, My Future

The Salisbury Museum

“Climate change affects everyone and everything.”

 

The Salisbury Museum worked with young people from the Rise:61 Youth Group and local Scout groups, to explore climate change and the impact on their lives. They asked these young people:

  • How do YOU feel about climate change?
  • What can YOU do about climate change?

The youngsters wanted to champion local campaigns that support the issues they were concerned about. They also got creative, working on things like environmental banners, recycled furniture and film making.

Their passion and responses are a call to action for everyone.

Sawfish are also called carpenter sharks...but they are rays, not sharks!

There’s also a species called a sawshark, but that’s, well, a shark!

What the heck is a lek?

Males great bustards perform spectacular courtship displays, gathering at a ‘lek’ or small display ground to try to impress the females.

Road Runner!

The great bustard has a dignified slow walk but tends to run when disturbed, rather than fly.

Belly Buster!

The hen-bird on display at The Salisbury Museum was one of the last great bustards to be eaten in the town!
