"A self-guided tour is a self-governing tour where one navigates a route oneself as opposed to an escorted tour where a tour guide directs the route, times, information, and places toured" (Wikipedia)
 
Twenty years ago Tate began to publicly support the oil company BP.

For a secret fee[1] BP is associated with Tate and great art, part of the corporate's need to generate a 'social license to operate' and create a perception of it making a positive contribution to society. Unfortunately, through this sponsorship arrangement, Tate has become complicit in taking the world to runaway climate change and other negative social impacts around the world.
