About the Work

“This ‘Ominous Ripples’ print is a metaphor for the environmental peril we have created and the struggles future generations will face just to navigate climate-related problems like super storms, drought, famine, population displacement, and, of course, rising sea levels. We are already treading water, drowning and suffocating even if many of us haven’t comprehended the scale of the problem or reach of the ripples yet. The lack of progress on climate change and pollution is largely due to the oversized influence of deep-pocketed oil companies. Billionaires, corporations, and politicians aren’t going to save the planet so we the people need to support a transition to responsible energy sources. This Earth Day, I am proud to support Greenpeace because they uplift the people — grassroots activists, determined researchers, climate champions — who actually do the work.” — Shepard Fairey
