Venice is sinking, sea levels are rising...this might be just an art installation but so many places are facing the very real threat that is climate change. Venice currently floods (and by floods they mean that the water level rises 110 cm (43 in) covering 14% of the city) roughly 4 times per year. The famous Rialto bridge has sunk 1.7 m (almost 5 ft) since it was built. This is not a fictional disaster movie. This is real. And it's only going to get worse if we don't take drastic measures to reverse it.

Love these. You were lucky to see them.

I saw a story about this art project on the evening news!! How awesome that you got to see it in person.
ReplyDeleteI love the exhibit and I am so ashamed of and enraged by the decision made by 45 that are no good for the planet or any of us.
