A man submerged up to his chin in brown, murky floodwaters and a group of miners covered head to toe in black soot -- these are a few of the images featured at a new climate-inspired photography exhibit at the Kennedy Center called Coal + Ice.
The display, running through April 22, features a spread of photos and videos taken across the globe and documents the harmful effects of human activity on the planet. It showcases the work of more than 50 photographers and videographers from around the world and the varying ways climate change manifests.
Coal + Ice comes to Washington, D.C. as reliance on fossil fuels has taken center stage amid the war in Ukraine. As the global market faces more significant uncertainty due to the volatile geopolitical landscape and dragging impacts of COVID-19, climate change has been pushed to the back burner.
The exhibit allows viewers to walk around freely and move between "pods," where individual collections provide an artistic exploration of the climate crisis. The content varies from scenes of coal mining operations worldwide to the rapidly melting glaciers of the Himalayas and photographs that chart their decline over the last few decades.
Though the latest installation is on the doorstep of the government here in Washington, D.C., there is concern about the exhibit's impact.
"The danger with climate change groups, it just preached to the converted. You know, so you know, that's, and you often have these closed circles. I mean, it's really complex questions of how you use your work to bring about change," said Mendel.

Only exhibit they need is A steaming hot pile of donkey crap
How much electricity does this powerful exhibit consume?
Soviets loved using art to push their tyranny too. Oh, same group, different name.
They never quit wanting to tax tomorrow’s weather, lower our standard of living and swim in gold.
Doesn't sound "powerful" at all.
Powerful only to those who failed fifth grade science class. Oh, we’re talking journalists. Never mind.
Forty-fifty ton of hot air, fer shur.
I hope they placed this historically significant artifact in a prominent place:

It is a wonderful testament to the grotesque stupidity of the “experts” on this topic.
They better not be using any of those evil flush toilets!
Speaking of Ice, Do they have an exhibit showing the cyclical ice ages for the past several million years. Or share that we are in a nice warm interglacial which is getting a bit long in the tooth? Of course not, that doesn’t fit the narrative for psyop brainwashing.
Floods. Climate change. Drought. Climate change. Cold weather. Climate change. Hot weather. Climate change. Hemorrhoids. Climate change.
Any pictures of a lithium mine or other rare earth metal mines?
Did they show the bare hills after the forests were cut down for firewood? Burning of dung? That occurred before coal, oil, and gas.
How do you tell if it is ABC News or Disney reporting? Probably Disney as they excel in clowns and cartoons.
“harmful effects of human activity on the planet”
Especially the harmful effects of all the hot air generated by politicians and Climate Change idiots.
Deserves a failing grade. Not worth even a quick look. More informative to watch grass grow.
They make so much money off this grift. They aren’t going to stop anytime soon.
