USING ART TO TACKLE SEA LEVEL RISE IN MIAMI
“I developed The Underwater to help my neighbors understand our vulnerability to rising seas and give them the tools to take action. Learning together and working together today, we can build a more equitable tomorrow.“
– Xavier Cortada
As our society continues to burn fossil fuels and heat the planet, humans are actively causing sea levels to rise, hurricanes to strengthen, and heat waves to intensify.
Help our community plan for the impacts of the climate crisis by joining The Underwater, Miami’s newest interactive art project by Xavier Cortada. Here’s how to participate:
- Find out your home’s elevation above sea level
- Place an Underwater Marker in your front yard
- Dive deeper into the issues and learn how to get involved with the Underwater Intel
What's your elevation?
