UK museums agree to collective action to tackle the climate crisis

National and regional museums across the UK have agreed to take collective action on the climate crisis, including managing collections more sustainably and using their position to engage audiences with the issues. Representatives of museums, organisations in the sector and funders took part in the first UK Museum Cop at Tate Modern in London last week. Among those attending were museums and organisations from Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Brighton, Leeds, Derby, Liverpool, York, Sheffield and London, as well as national bodies from England, Wales and Scotland. https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2023/nov/06/uk-museums-agree-to-collective-action-to-tackle-the-climate-crisis
