Climate Change Exhibition Opens in London's West End
People staying in cheap hotels in London's West End can take advantage of a new exhibition highlighting the impact of climate change.
Hard Rain by photographer Mark Edwards features a number of images illustrating poverty and human rights as well as the detrimental effects of mankind on the planet.
Prime minister Gordon Brown said: "If Hard Rain is a photographic elegy it is also an impassioned cry for change.
"Forceful dramatic and disturbing, it is driven by what Martin Luther King called: 'the fierce urgency of now' - and I believe the call for a truly global response to climate change is an idea whose time has finally come."
The title of the exhibition, which was originally shown at the Eden Project in Cornwall, refers to Bob Dylan's song A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall.
Edwards' photos are on display until the end of the year but have been installed in the run up to the climate change conference in Copenhagen.
