Presented by Airbus & The UN CBD, The See The Bigger Picture International Exhibit to Make its U.S. Debut at the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center

August 30, 2010

See the Bigger Picture originated in 2009, when Airbus, the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and National Geographic launched an international photo competition for young people to submit their photographic interpretations of biodiversity. The exhibit, which has obtained worldwide acclaim, has already visited cities such as Paris, Madrid, Hamburg and Whistler (during the Winter Olympics), and will go on to Japan later in the fall. Airbus, which has an engineering base in Mobile, Ala., felt it was imperative to bring the exhibit to the Gulf Coast. "Airbus is committed to the Gulf Coast community as this is one of our many homes around the world," said David Trent, Site Director of Mobile's Airbus Engineering Center. "With the oil spill, it's now more important than ever to draw attention to the stunning variety and importance of nature and to encourage everyone to get involved in preserving it." Full release.
