Description & Specifications

“The 1.5°C limit for global warming is not an arbitrary or politically determined figure, but a scientific target that has emerged from decades of research into the relationship between the rise in average global temperatures and the impacts on ecosystems and human societies. It is based on the physics and chemistry of greenhouse gases, as well as on how much warming is likely to cause serious impacts. Obviously, there is no abrupt ‘threshold’ at 1.5°C; this figure was chosen as a round, symbolic and powerful point of reference for communication. Every fraction of a degree Celsius matters, since even small temperature increases lead to increasingly severe impacts, which worsen particularly as we approach and exceed 1.5°C.”

“From the enigmatic microcosm to the exotic macrocosm, the Forty-Two Series explores themes in science and art, aiming to highlight imagination, inquiry, creation, doubt and questioning, treating them as living, dynamic relationships with the individual and society, and reducing—or even eliminating—the artificial distance that may surround them.”
