🌊 Exploring the Depths of Climate Change Through Art: Daan Roosegaarde's WATERLICHT 🌊 Waterlicht by Daan Roosegaarde is a virtual flood that simulates potential future water levels by using LEDs and lenses to create a dreamlike landscape. After touring globally since 2015, Waterlicht has been displayed in significant venues such as Museumplein in Amsterdam and the United Nations in New York. Daan Roosegaarde describes it as an activator for a better future, underlining both the vulnerability and strength required to coexist with water. This installation serves as a collective experience, reminding viewers of the critical impact of climate change. Since 1900, sea levels have risen by 7.9'' (20 cm). The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) projects that global sea levels could rise by 0.28 to 1.0 meters (0.9 to 3.3 feet) by 2100, with a best estimate of 0.44 meters (1.4 feet). However, these are just projections, and the actual rise could be higher or lower depending on various factors, such as the rate of greenhouse gas emissions and the response of ice sheets to warming temperatures. #ClimateChange #Innovation #Sustainability #ArtInAction #DaanRoosegaarde #WATERLICHT #EnvironmentalAwareness https://lnkd.in/dETxcJCn

Shocked by the devastating floods in Valencia 🇪🇸 ! Sending love to those affected. I hear it directly from friends with family there. These more frequent and extreme weather events, like droughts on the other hand, are largely caused by climate change. And it's not just happening in faraway places! 🇮🇹 Italy has seen a series of floods too. Even the UK 🇬🇧 has experienced record-breaking heatwaves and flooding in recent years. Want to understand the science behind it and some climate actions you can take? Join me in co-facilitating a Climate Fresk workshop on Thursday, November 14th at the Creekside Discovery Centre in Deptford! This interactive and engaging workshop will explore the causes and consequences of climate change, equipping you with knowledge to take action on a personal or collective level. Perfect for anyone interested in learning more in a fund and engaging way! ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dJF_TwAR #ClimateChange #ClimateAction #ClimateFresk #Deptford #London #ValenciaFloods #sustainabilityworkshop Anne Barrett
