British artist Amy Sharrocks collects nearly all kinds ofwater. In 2013, she set up the Museum of Water, a live piece of artwork thattravels all over the world and invited people to donate water--from spit tomelted snow--in a bottle and discuss what it means to them.
   The program aims to understand why people treasure water and helpprepare them for a drier future and climate, Ms. Sharrocks told an audience ofclimate experts, activists and museum curators (馆长). "For example,we show them how to have three-minute showers to better deal with watershortages ," she said.
    Amy is notalone as a matter of fact. As world leaders increasingly face up to the seriousresults of climate change, curators are planning a new wave of museums, whichare devoted to what many consider a vital issue of the times.

"Climate change is affectingvirtually every aspect of our lives, " Ms. Massie said. "But we can'tfight the problem with top-down policies alone. We need the public toparticipate and museums are a way to open people's mind to what matters.

   While museums can be a powerful way of communicating the effects ofclimate change, they should also practice what they spread and control theirown emissions ( 排放物 ). "Roughly half of cities'emissionscome from energy use in buildings, " said Elliot Goodger, amuseums'association representative of the West Midlands in Britain,"museums have a duty to be energy-efficient, for example by using laserlighting for displays or improving their building materials. "
