Driving climate conversations in Australia with Ocean Visuals exhibition at the Sydney Opera House
Amiera Sawas. Climate Outreach

The ocean is fundamental to the livelihoods of most Australians, 80% of which live in coastal zones. Ocean health and climate resilience are also deeply interlinked – the ocean is the world’s biggest carbon sink, absorbing a quarter of all carbon emissions. Climate change is causing serious shifts in the ocean, which is degrading its health and contributing to sea level rise and disaster risks, like storm surges and hurricanes. Climate Outreach teamed up with Australian agency Glider Global to root its global Ocean Visuals project in Australia. Climate Outreach display 32 images from their Ocean Visuals collection in a free exhibition at the Sydney Opera House between 29 March and 7 April. Several of the photographs selected from the Ocean Visuals collection, and photos taken over the course of the exhibition can be seen at the link.
