The mall is all about our appetite for stuff, our greedy habit of consuming more than anyone else in the world. It is about our relationship to cars — off the freeway, with plenty of parking! — and our abandonment of our cities. It is about our infantile attention span, our embrace of the artificial, our transformation from a country that makes things to a country that buys things. Things we do not need.
Opening of the Canary Project exhibit, which uses art to forewarn global warming. Come to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History to see photographs of sites that show evidence of climate change; view exhibits pertaining to climate change and its effects, and offer your ideas how to create a more sustainable future.
The exhibit will be on display through Aug. 10.
This site is inspired by the memory of Richard Shatten, a former board member of EcoCity Cleveland,
who pushed Northeast Ohio to think strategically about regionalism and sustainability.
