Climateloss.org was created in part as a virtual diary, to record the beauty around the world we stand to loose due to climate change. In hopes that future generations will have a record of the world we lost. We also seek to show people the real time devastation caused by climate change and pollution. In hopes that change may come. We will be looking for local citizens to share photos and videos of pollution, species loss, erosion and more. We also hope you will share the beauty. By 2070, one third of all animals and plants may be extinct. Who better than to capture all we stand to lose than those closest to it.
