Think Global: Act Bristol is a new exhibition at the Mshed aiming to explore big environmental questions such as ‘how did we get here?’ and ‘what does a just, green future look like?’

Historical objects from the Bristol Museums’ collections help to highlight the impact of Bristol’s industrial, colonialist past on the challenges of today. Those challenges, along with collaborative solutions, are explored throughout the exhibition with art, video interviews with experts and community members, along with interactive elements where you can add your voice to the conversation.

Think Global: Act Bristol draws attention to the systemic approach that Bristol is taking in response to the climate and ecological emergencies. Bristol Green Capital Partnership is pleased to have been involved in the steering group, and to see a range of local voices and projects represented.

Collective action is key to creating a green and fair Bristol. There are loads of ways you can get involved in local climate and nature action.
