ADUR BIODIVERSITY EXHIBITION
4 June to 15 June 2001
In June 1992, over 150 Heads of States signed the Convention on Biological Diversity at Rio de Janeiro. They did so to express a shared belief that action must be taken to halt the worldwide loss of animal and plant species and genetic resources.
The Adur Exhibition will celebrate the varied wildlife of the lower Adur Valley including the whole of the Adur District.
World Oceans Day was first declared as 8th June at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. The display will contain a collection of photographs and information on the undersea world of the English Channel and the Sussex seashore.
