Gary Braasch is an environmental photographer who for 25 years has reported on natural history in many parts of the world. Since 1999, he has been working on a project titled "World View of Global Warming" in which he photographs areas on all continents that illustrate documented results of climate change and repeats historic photographs to show the changes. He works with environmental groups, scientists and editors to educate the public, urging government and corporate sectors to more directly address the reality of climate change.

    Rebecca Davis
Eco Sculpture    Photo Collage
In Davis' words, "My work reflects my anxiety about the pollution produced by our synthetic culture. The effect pollution has on the earth's environment is the conceptual core of my sculpture and photo collage. In my work, I combine elements of wilderness and the products of human culture." She carves miniature glaciers out of marble and pours oozing black rubber on them. These sculptures get reused in her photo collages, placed as icebergs floating in sea.

    Rebecca Potts
Glacial Melt
Rebecca Potts is interested in human interaction with land: how we both alter and are altered by the land. Her current work searches for solutions and understanding of climate change. It specifically focuses on water's role in global warming: the melting of glaciers, sea-level rise, and the quickening loss of this blue-gold.

    Green House Gas Photos
GHG is the scientific shorthand for Greenhouse Gases, the gases whose build up in the upper atmosphere is the cause of anthropogenic climate change. GHG Photos is a coalition of science, environmental, nature, and documentary photographers who have spent the last several years focused on the emissions and effects of those Greenhouse Gas emissions, as well as attempts to mitigate their release and adapt to the changing climate.
