Here are some images of the Cool Globes, San Francisco<\/a> project that I took as I walked<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n along the beautiful Presidio park promenade, better known as Crissy Field.<\/p>\n Current<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n “Cool Globes is an outdoor, public art exhibit that highlights climate change and the simple things each of us can do in our everyday lives to prevent it.<\/p>\n The exhibit features 40 custom-designed 5-foot globes — each depicting a solution to the climate crisis. Cool Globes will be on display at Crissy Field from August 5 through October 12.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The exhibits are in San Diego, Washington D.C., San Francisco, & London coming in 2009. Cool Globes <\/a>is “a non-profit organization established to raise awareness of global warming and inspire individuals and community leaders to embrace solutions.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The specific globe images above are described in the CG Gallery<\/a> as:<\/p>\n Image One and Two:<\/em><\/p>\n First We Scream, Then We Act “Take action and get involved by voting, and urging elected officials to pursue sensible environmental laws. Incorporate eco-friendly practices in the home, the workplace and throughout the community. Look into joining or volunteering with an environmental or community organization working to make a difference. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”<\/p>\n Nancy Steinmeyer has been exploring environmental issues through her artwork for the past 10 years, and global warming is her new target. This globe reveals how every small action can add up to a large reduction in the emission of carbon dioxide gas into the atmosphere. A reproduction of Edward Munch’s famous painting “The Scream” might signify the planet calling out for help, while Steinmeyer’s “I want you” image of Uncle Sam provokes the viewer to act.<\/strong><\/p>\n
