Climate Commons is a networked conversation about climate change,
sustainability, and the Arctic. The website features thirteen core
participants, including a glaciologist, architect, journalist, and
comedian, each of whom contributes weekly posts about their work,
inspirations, discoveries, or questions. Readers can join the
conversation by clicking on the comments "hex" icon and choosing a cell
in which to respond to any particular post. Please note that you must
register to post comments.
As an interdisciplinary, collaborative art/research project, Climate
Commons seeks to point to voices behind complex environmental concerns
and to create connections, analogies, and discussion across disciplines,
economies, and ideologies.
Core participants include:
Sally Bingham, Episcopal Priest
Jock Gill, Carbon Neutral by 2020
Mitchell Joachim, Architect
Jane D. Marsching, Artist
Larry Merculieff, Alaska Native Science Commission
Robert Newman, Comedian
Matt Nolan, Glaciologist
James Overland, Climatologist
Sarah Rich, WorldChanging
Russell Potter, Historian
Andrew Revkin, Environmental Journalist, The New York Times
Matthew Shanley, Artist/Programmer
Juanita Urban-Rich, Windows Around the World
Climate Commons is part of a larger project, Arctic Listening Post, a
series of interdisciplinary, collaborative hybrid art research works in
digital technologies by Marsching. The project is supported by Creative
Capital and LEF Foundation Contemporary Work Fund and will conclude at
the end of February 2007.
