Interactive Exhibits During your visit to the Resource Center, take time to see the interactive exhibits. Each exhibit has a list of questions to help you explore and learn more about your actions, Spokane, and our world. - Act Locally presents behaviors that help you take personal actions to reduce the pressure on the Earth's resources. Find a new action that you can try.

- Night Lights of the World provides the opportunity to "think globally". This satellite image of the world shows resources used by the geographic areas relative to their populations.
