The photo exhibition of Michael Muller called «Galapagos: changed the world» was opened on the 3rd GUM’s line in June, the 25th. It is an utter fallacy to think that the sea and its wealth belong to no one. If all people of this or the next generations were aware that this wealth is our general heritage, this awareness could be the base of a sound development not spoiling the environment.
The Galapagos Islands are a kind of evolution lab with incomparable and unrepeatable flora and fauna. The world on the continent evolved regardless the complete isolation. However it is in a grave danger now.
The Ecuador government declared the main continent the nature reserve in 1959. It is interesting to mention that the archipelago of oceanic origin is still in the formation stage thanks to the volcano activity in the place of the magma emergence on the Earth mantle.
The Galapagos was declared the monument of world heritage in 1978 and was included in the list of monuments in danger in 2007.
The photographer Michael Muller offers you to make a fascinating travelling in the mysterious world of Galapagos.
The exhibition lasts till July, the 19th.
