Hard Rain: Our Headlong Collision with Nature

Manchester Metropolitan University’s Environment Team are hosting the globally recognised environmental exhibition Hard Rain, which will be shown between Monday 23rd - Friday 27th November 2009.

The photographer, Mark Edwards, is one of the few environmental communicators to have personally witnessed the global issues that are defining the 21st century. This exhibition goes straight to the Copenhagen Climate Conference in December after it has been displayed at MMU.

The book and photo exhibition Hard Rain is Mark Edward's latest project, and collaborates with Bob Dylan's lyric to Hard Rain. It was launched at the Eden Project in Cornwall in 2006 to huge public and critical acclaim, attracting the support and endorsement of political and environmental leaders across the world. It has been exhibited at the United Nations headquarter building in New York and been shown at outdoor locations in principle cities on every continent to over 12 million people.

This exhibition is free and open to all members of the public.
