The Eden Trust, an educational charity, was established to build and operate the Eden Project as one of the Landmark Millennium projects to mark the year 2000 in the UK. The core statement of the charitable aims of the Eden Trust is 'to promote public education and research into flora, fauna and other aspects of the natural environment'. The Project communicates its stories in a 'Living theatre of Plants and People' based in a worked-out Cornish clay pit in which nestle two vast greenhouses (Biomes). These Biomes feature plants, crops and landscapes from the humid tropics and warm temperate regions and act as a backdrop to the outdoor temperate landscape (also technically a "Biome") which mirrors our UK environment. Eden uses exhibitions, art, storytelling, workshops, lectures and events to present themes and topcis to the public and to more formal education groups. The aim is to work with the widest possible audience and together learn about the need for environmental care through celebrating what nature gives to us. Some of our projects include Climate Revolution, Mud, Gardens for life, Waste NeutralThe Edge, Tithing College, the Sexy Green Car Show and The Eden Centre for Agronomy, Research and Knowlege. More information on these projects can be found on our website www.edenproject.com.
