These articles have been published by the World's first Climate Change Museum "The Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change - Hong Kong” in addition to more than 100 other publications around the world.  The diminishment of biodiversity as a result of Climate Change was addressed in Selva’s article titled “Green Policy and Crypto Energy Consumption in the EU.”

The inspiration behind the theme of the art show was  Fatma Kadir's painting titled “Ravens - Four Seasons” recently wining first prize at the nature art competition at Connemara National Park - Páirc Náisiúnta Chonamara in Ireland coupled with her diverse bird artwork – all 16 paintings that are included in this art show-- including "Homeless Doves" being selected and distributed via social media by the Biodiversity Department of the Department of Culture, Heritage and Gaeltacht of Ireland on Biodiversity Day on May 22, 2020.  Fatma’s painting titled “Homeless Doves” is also part of Atelier Teymur Rzayev First Digital Climate Change Art Show which is a registered UN World Environment Day and World Ocean Day digital event  that has been published by World’s first climate change museum The Jockey Club Museum for Climate Change-Hong Kong

“Maskuary - Guarding Nature”

Digital Digital event 
 

Nature is critical to our survival: nature provides us with our oxygen, our water, regulates our weather patterns, pollinates our crops, produces our food, feed and fiber. But it is under increasing stress, subject to extreme weather events. Becuase Human activity has altered almost 75 per cent of the earth’s surface, squeezing wildlife and nature into an ever-smaller corner of the planet. The pandemic has made matters worse by producing an enormous amount of single use plastic medical waste.
Fatma Kadir with her art show reminds us that we must guard nature by changing our production and consumption habits towards cleaner and greener existence, particularly in light of the global coronavirus pandemic. With her paintings of trees, birds, people and single use plastic protective masks, Fatma joins TiredEarth.com’s #Maskuary Campaign which aims at warning against the dangers of pollution from disposable masks to the environment.

Seawatcher and Seawatcher 2 - Maskury

Istanbul Digital event 
 

Semine Hazar’s digital art show “Sea Watcher” will take place at the Pinelo Art Gallery in Istanbul, Turkey from June 8 to June 22, 2020, starting on World Oceans Day.  “In 2017 I traveled to the Antarctic and firsthand witnessed the melting of the ice and with a great sound crash into the sea.  This brought tears to my eyes.  The light house in my painting marks the last inhabitable point in South America.  I imagined that soon we would be moving this light house to the Antarctic. 

The inspiration behind her solo digital art show “Sea Watcher” is an offshoot of her taking part in the Atelier Teymur Rzayev First Digital Climate Change Art Show which is a registered UN World Environment Day and World Ocean Day digital event  that has been published by World’s first climate change museum The Jockey Club Museum for Climate Change-Hong Kong.
