This three-panel piece is made entirely of recycled plastic bags that my newspapers are delivered in, plus dire headlines about climate change and sea level rise from the papers themselves. All of the quilting is excerpts from scientific papers that discuss the relationship of plastic to climate change and sea level rise.
