Through this project, I set out to reinforce the notion that everyone, regardless of age or size, can contribute to finding solutions to the climate crisis. I began by asking kids if they think about climate change and if it worries them. Most kids responded affirmatively, feeling overwhelmed. Then I asked, "What if you were a giant and could save the Earth from climate change, what would you do?" Their imagination sparked and ideas flowed. Initial helplessness transformed into empowerment. With their ideas I made these images to represent their innovative approach to tackling climate change.
