Arts + Climate Innovation: Dry Waters

by Track Zero

Arts + Climate Innovation: Dry Waters

Art and Science Talk

Free event
Location: Goethe Institut, Wellington
View Map

Together with expert climate scientist Prof. Tim Naish (Victoria University), Track Zero ran a workshop on climate science, oceans & climate impacts in the Pacific region for a talented group of global and local Wellington artists involved in the climate-art project, ‘Dry Waters’. The cross-cultural group came together for three intensive days in February 2019 to co-create art works shown at The Performance Arcade (festival of live art and music on Wellington’s waterfront). Curated by Berlin-based No Boundaries e.V. presents, the project was hosted in Aotearoa by the Goethe-Institut New Zealand. As part of the project, Track Zero ran a public talk, ‘Arts + Climate Innovation: Dry Waters’ that brought artists and a climate scientist together to discuss the powerful role arts can play in inspiring climate action.

NZ is falling well short domestically to curb our NZ is falling well short domestically to curb our emissions.  “...emissions intensity per unit of GDP is third highest in the OECD; Emissions intensity per capita is fifth highest.  New Zealand ranks 42nd of the 43 industrialised Annex 1 countries within the United Nation’s climate treaty in terms of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions, beating only Turkey. The likes of the climate action tracker, a research group which measures climate progress in a range of countries, say New Zealand is well short of where it should be.”  https://www.stuff.co.nz/environment/climate-news/123912249/the-year-new-zealand-must-convince-the-world-its-climate-rhetoric-is-more-than-hot-air  PUBLIC CONSULTATION ON GETTING TO NET-ZERO BY 2050 – launching 1 Feb  The Climate Change Commission will be consulting with the public from 1 February - 14 March 2021 on a draft of its first package of advice to Government on the actions it must take to reach net-zero by 2050, and ensure a transition to a low-emissions, climate resilient and thriving Aotearoa.
