Abstract

Summers have always been hot, but we are experiencing exceedingly intensive heat across the world. Global temperature records break headlines more frequently thanks to anthropogenic climate change. In response to the deadly heatwave of 2020—which engulfed Europe with record-breaking temperatures and caused tens of thousands of deaths—artist and climate activist Diane Burko created Summer Heat. This 7 × 13 ft painting illustrates the causes and effects of climate change clashing into each other by displaying the Earth’s continents underneath splashes of red and blue, which reflect on the EU record-breaking heat and melting glaciers, dripping across the canvas, juxtaposed with the iconic Keeling curve that presents the accumulation of CO₂ in the Earth’s atmosphere based on continuous measurements taken at the Mauna Loa Observatory since 1958. This artwork was further used in a study and showed its positive influence on bridging political divisions in climate change.

夏日炎炎

夏季向来炎热，但我们正在经历全球范围内超强度的高温。由于人为的气候变化，全球气温记录更频繁地成为头条新闻。2020 年，致命的热浪席卷欧洲，气温创下历史新高，造成数万人死亡，对此，艺术家和气候活动家 Diane Burko 创作了《夏日炎炎》。这幅 7 × 13 英尺的画作展示了气候变化的原因和影响，画中的地球大陆在红色和蓝色的映衬下熠熠生辉，反映了欧盟破纪录的高温和冰川的融化，滴落在画布上，与标志性的基林曲线并列，基林曲线根据自 1958 年以来在莫纳罗亚天文台进行的连续测量，展示了地球大气中二氧化碳的积累情况。这幅作品被进一步用于一项研究，并显示出其对弥合气候变化方面的政治分歧的积极影响。
