Think of artists like Serge Attukwei Clottey, who transforms plastic waste into stunning sculptures, or Nnenna Okore, who creates intricate installations with recycled materials. These are just a few examples of how artists are confronting the climate crisis and inspiring us to take action.

So, whether you're a seasoned art collector or just curious about how art can help us protect our planet, there's something for you this month.
