Rising Seas And Climate Change Seven Public Art Installations

 The original article was first posted all the way back in 2017, but recently had an update, so worth revisiting. Seven art projects, or installations that are calling attention to climate change and rising seas. With each passing year, art is becoming more of a tool to help raise awareness for our deteriorating environment and the future of an uncertain but hotter climate. Artists are excellent at communication and have a way of getting us to stop and think that sometimes simply reading an article or watching the news can't quite compete with. Art, done well, helps us to think.  Read the article from Post and Courier. The article is mostly about Charleston, of course, but is equally relevant to any of us who live in coastal communities and anyone who cares about the future effects of climate change on our planet.
