A Web3 daily art project to document Climate Change causes, effects and solutions.
Climate Change Countdown
Inspired by Beeple Everydays and the Climate Clock and using the potentialities of Web3 and blockchains, the project aims to make a difference raising awareness on the Climate Emergency.
The Next 10 years will be crucial to drive down Climate Change emissions and contain the world average temperature increase to 1.5 C.
In order to successfully address this challenge, there is an urgent need to raise awareness about it.
What we do?
From 01/19/2022 and for 10 years, the project creates and posts a digital artwork about Climate Change everyday, exploring a variety of forms of visual and non visual art. The artworks are published daily on the artists social media channels.
The core of the project are periodic expeditions on the field to document causes and effects of Climate Change and positive examples of sustainability and activism.
Goals
-find new artists available to produce and publish a Climate Change art everyday
