World Oceans Day 2020
Our oceans need us now more than ever. While it’s true that the Earth has had some vital breathing space during our days indoors; this has had little or no impact on issues such as sea-rise. The window for climate action is closing quickly; we must act now to slow the rising of our oceans for generations to come. I believe deeply that art is a powerful tool in helping to raise awareness. In this blog entry, I’ve compiled a list of recent posts relevant to World Oceans Day. You may also like to look through the digital versions of two book projects: Rising Horizon + As Coastline is to Ocean.
