The Embassy of Denmark in Bangladesh, in partnership with Edge, The Foundation presents this thought-provoking journey, scheduled to open to the public on Friday at Edge Gallery and will be running till May 6. 

Admission is free for all and the exhibition will be open every day from 10am to 8pm at the Bay’s Edgewater Building on 12 North Avenue, Gulshan 2.

The photos at the exhibition raise consciousness about planet Earth, how it has naturally come to be as it is today and how we, its inhabitants, continue to change its face, for the better and for worse.

‘Mind the Earth’ has been exhibited at COP21 in Paris and COP22 in Marrakech, the most important global conferences on climate change.

The overall theme of the exhibition is the intertwined subjects of sustainable development and climate change, explored through striking photos secured via Google Earth’s satellites.

Mind the Earth, a non-profit organisation, raises awareness about the challenges the world is facing in terms of climate change, population growth, urbanization and management of the limited resources of the planet in a broader sense through exhibitions and publications.
