“Importantly, art also has the power to motivate action, and to spur creative responses to the most pressing challenges. “Art has the power to make abundantly clear how climate change is threatening the people and places we love, our livelihoods, and our economy,” said Allison Crimmins, Director of the Fifth National Climate Assessment. Acknowledging the need for broad engagement to address the urgent climate crisis, and recognizing the power of art to shape and drive conversations across issues, Art x Climate invited artists to explore the themes of NCA5 by visualizing climate change in the United States. Today, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) announced the top five award winners of Art x Climate, the first-ever call for visual art for the fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5). This work harnesses the power of art to advance the national conversation around climate change.
