EVERYBODY can make a positive difference to the environment by thinking and acting green.
That was the message of the Rio+10 Earth Festival held on Saturday and Sunday at Ashley Green, in Salisbury.
Organised by South Wiltshire Agenda 21 Forum, the festival, which coincided with the tenth anniversary of the United Nations Earth Summit in Rio in 1992, promoted plenty of serious themes on sustainable development - but it was lots of fun, too.
There was the Green Roadshow, a whale and dolphin exhibition and the Croissant Neuf Circus - the only wind- and solar-powered all-human circus, where participants could roll up to learn skills including juggling and diabolo.
Monica Miskelly and Andrew Redding were there with daughter Amy (eight).
Amy said: "The festival is good because people who come here may learn to look after the world."
Looking after the world by recycling was the theme of many of the exhibits.
