🌳With wildlife populations in decline, it is a stark reminder that the living world is under threat, yet too often unheard where decisions that shape our future are made. Monkey Rock changes that. This 8-metre-tall sculpture will become a public stage in Davos where scientists, artists, Indigenous leaders, and young activists come together to speak for the planet. For one week, it will transform a corridor of power into a space where nature commands attention, ideas spark, and urgent action is inspired. Your support makes this possible. We cannot wait any longer. Donate now to ensure nature has a voice at the center of global decisions. voordekunst.nl/projecten/2026… #Davos #Davos2026 #Nature #ClimateAction #MonkeyRock #SpeciesCorner #AtelierVanLieshout

In a world where 73% of wildlife populations have vanished since the 1970s, silence is no longer an option. Each year, decisions are made that shape the future of our planet — yet nature is left unheard. Monkey Rock brings the living world into the conversation, giving it a voice that cannot be ignored.Standing 8 metres tall, Monkey Rock will become more than a sculpture — it will be a gathering place where voices for the planet converge. Scientists, artists, Indigenous leaders, and young activists will take the stage to share knowledge, challenge decisions, and inspire action. For one week in Davos, Monkey Rock will turn a space of power into a public arena where nature takes the spotlight, conversations spark, and the world is called to act for the planet’s future. Help us make nature impossible to ignore — donate today! : voordekunst.nl/projecten/2026… #Davos #Davos2026 #ClimateAction #Nature

In January 2026, we're bringing Species Corner — a monumental art–science installation and public forum — to the World Economic Forum in Davos. For one week, "Monkey Rock," an 8-metre-high great ape** sculpture and debate stage, will become a Speaker's Corner for Nature: a place where scientists, artists, Indigenous leaders, young activists, and global decision-makers gather to speak openly for the planet. This is more than an artwork; it's an act of collective courage. Together, we can put nature at the center of the global conversation. Donate now — and help make nature impossible to ignore at Davos 2026. voordekunst.nl/projecten/2026… #Davos #Davos2026 #Nature #ClimateAction #MonkeyRock #SpeciesCorner #AtelierVanLieshout **Spoiler alert: we know the difference between an ape and a monkey - it's satire to provoke healthy debate.

🌡️🍫Cocoa prices are rising, and it’s starting to show in your snacks.Penguins and Club bars? Officially just “chocolate-flavored” now. 😲Climate change is putting pressure on food supply chains, causing shortages and inflation—so yes, even our favorite childhood treats aren’t safe.

🛒 Whether you’re putting cabbage, chocolate, coffee or olive oil into your basket — the climate bill is coming with it. 💸 New research from Kotz et al published in the Environmental Research Letters links extreme weather events directly to short-term spikes in food prices around the world. From a 50% jump in olive oil after drought in Spain, to an 89% surge in onion prices in India, climate shocks are now reshaping what we pay — and what we can afford. As these extremes become more frequent, food systems — and wallets — everywhere will be feeling the strain. 🔗 Read the full story and get your daily climate briefing by visiting Climate Risks Daily: pulse.ly/9udcj4kt6t #ClimateRiskDaily #FoodPrices #ExtremeWeather #ClimateCrisis #GlobalRisks #Inflation #ClimateBasecamp

France just made a bold move against ultra-fast fashion. 🧵🇫🇷 A recent law targets fast-fashion giants like SHEIN and Temu with ad bans, eco-taxes, and influencer restrictions — all aimed at reducing their environmental toll. Some critics say the bill doesn’t go far enough, sparing major European brands like Zara and H&M. Despite its limits, it’s one of the first bills of its kind; and a step toward more responsible, sustainable fashion. Do you think other countries should or will follow France’s lead? 👇Leave your thoughts in the comments and follow this page for similar content. #FastFashion #ClimateCrisis #France #ClimateRegulation #Sustainability #ClimateBasecamp

🍦☀️ Will this be the last summer for your favorite ice-cream flavor? From vanilla to coffee to chocolate — climate change is threatening the ingredients behind your go-to summer scoops. As the planet heats up, so does the risk of losing the treats we love. No climate action = fewer flavors of ice-cream.

Dye. Repeat. The Sustainable Summer Edit. 🌞🌿 Summer style doesn’t have to come at the planet’s expense. From thrifting to swapping, here are 3 easy ways to dress better and waste less. Fast fashion is responsible for 8–10% of global carbon emissions—more than all international flights and shipping combined. Let’s do better. Which one will you try first? ♻️ #SustainableFashion #SlowStyle #ThriftFlip #EcoChic #SummerEdit #SustainableSummer #SustainableLiving #ClimateBasecamp

This sh*t is B-A-N-🍌-A-S! New research from Christian Aid shows that the world’s most popular fruit is in serious trouble due to climate change. 🌡️ By 2080, up to 60% of the most suitable banana-growing areas in Latin America and the Caribbean could be lost to rising temperatures and extreme weather. 👩‍🌾 These regions currently grow 80% of bananas exported globally—and for many farmers, bananas are not just a crop, but a lifeline. Climate change is already hitting their harvests, incomes, and communities. 🍌 More than 400 million people rely on bananas for up to 27% of their daily calories, making them the fourth most important food crop after wheat, rice, and maize. 🍦 Whether you’re team banana split or Chunky Monkey, your favorite flavour might melt away. 👉 Cutting emissions is key to protecting crops, communities, and dessert. 🔗 Share this post to help us #SAVEBANANAS! and join the #SaveTheFlavors movement on the Climate Basecamp website via our link in bio. #ClimateCrisis #BananaDrama #FoodJustice #ClimateAction #LatinAmerica #ActOnClimate #FarmersFirst #SustainableFarming #ClimateFoodCrisis #DessertInDanger #BananaDrama #ClimateBasecamp

Climate Basecamp co-founder, Rainn Wilson, shares his firsthand experience with the LA wildfires in TIME and his message is clear: We must take action. He writes, "There’s so much we can do, we have to do. Besides reducing our carbon footprint, moving to EVs and cheaper renewable energy sources, and limiting the amount of meat we eat, we can get deeply acquainted with the science of the reality of our climate. This is not a partisan issue, it’s simply the truth about how oil and coal and deforestation have affected our planet. L.A. is the cultural capital of the world, and speaking science truth in the stories we artists produce would go a long way toward addressing the crisis." Read his powerful piece in TIME linked in our bio. #climateaction #rainnwilson #climatebasecamp #lafires

The Arctic acts as our planet’s insurance policy against catastrophic climate change—but we’re losing it at an alarming rate. 🌍❄️ Arctic ice has shrunk by nearly 40%, and its volume has plummeted by 75%. If you’re aware of climate issues, the time to act is now. There is hope. The power lies in partnership and scaling up solutions. Let’s not just be shocked—let’s act.

From toxic chemicals to microplastics, nail polish has a hidden environmental cost. 💅🌍 Many formulas contain harmful ingredients like toluene and formaldehyde, which can pollute soil and water, while glitter adds to the growing microplastic crisis. Most nail polish bottles end up in landfills, where they take centuries to decompose. The beauty industry must do better. Choose eco-conscious brands, dispose of polish properly, and push for sustainable solutions. What are your favorite environmentally cautious beauty brands? Tell us in the comments!♻️💚 #climatebasecamp #hiddencosts #nailpolish

Climate change is hitting our wallets—hard. ☕🍫 Cocoa and coffee prices have more than doubled, while sunflower oil, beef, and orange juice are also seeing major spikes due to droughts, heatwaves, and extreme rainfall. 🌡️💰 As global temperatures keep rising, food supply chains are becoming more vulnerable, leading to shortages and inflation. Experts warn this trend will continue unless we take serious action on climate change. 🌍❗Share this post with a friend to help us #save theflavors. #foodcrisis #climatechange #risingprices #extremeweather #sustainablefuture
