Global Climate Strike Day, September 20, 2019
To support Greta Thunberg, 350.org, and the students who began a push for more climate awareness on this particular day, Friday, September 20, 2019, and all through the week to follow, we offer these artists/works of art and other posts that celebrate the beauty of our world, expose the danger to our world from human action or inaction, and/or show commitment to saving our environment and our planet. This is a mere sampling of the beauty and complexity our artists and writers offer at Escape Into Life. We hope these visuals inspire you or give you a moment to pause and think, to meditate, or to plan a concrete action. Let’s put our heads and hearts together to solve this problem.
