The release of Showtime’sย โ€œYears of Living Dangerouslyโ€ย series about climate changeย inspired me to edit a collection of my climate change related photographs. They include the aftermath of extreme storms andย drought.

Although the United Nations has acknowledged the threat of climate change, as have President Obama and other leaders around the world, the fossil fuel industry forges ahead with business as usual,ย apparently without real concern for impending catastrophicย change.ย 

Focusing on a wide range of issues, fromย the continued expansion of the fossil fuel industry to the destruction of forests, these photos serve as a warning call to the growing number ofย imminent disasters weย face.ย 

โ€œYears of Living Dangerouslyโ€ episode six airs tonight at 8pm on Showtime.ย Brendan DeMelle, DeSmogBlog’s Executive Director and Managing Editor, was interviewed by host America Ferrera for the segment airing tonight called โ€œAgainst the Wind.โ€ DeMelle and Center for Media and Democracy executive director Lisa Graves talk with Ferrera about the attacks on renewable energy by the climate denial group Heartland Institute.

You can watch episode one of the series for freeย here:
