On the ball for climate issues

AN 8FT spherical exhibit which will help inform scientists as part of the fight against climate change is set to be unveiled at the Scottish Parliament today.

The Macaulay's Tomorrow's World exhibit is designed to highlight and educate the public about changes they can make in their lifestyles which may impact on future climate change.

The interactive exhibit gives adults and children the opportunity to take part in surveys about the likelihood of changing their behaviour around everyday actions such as water use, food miles and car trips.

Following its debut, Macaulay's Tomorrow's World will tour around Scotland.
