On 5 February 2018 begins what many call the „trial of the century,“ Juliana v. United States. Supported by the small nonprofit Our Children‘s Trust, 21 diverse young Americans are suing to compel the US to implement a comprehensive science-based climate recovery plan that would effectively reverse Trump‘s withdrawal from the Paris accord and multiple other climate reversals.
We discussed the Juliana suit with its principal strategists, Julia Olson and Lou Helmuth of Our Children‘s Trust. Thomas Pogge briefly related the central argument of Juliana to two other approaches to climate justice: a broadly speaking Kantian ethical approach that requires agents to permit themselves only such conduct as they can will to be permitted to all other agents as well; and the legal approach taken by the Oslo Principles: globaljustice.macmillan.yale.edu/sites/default/files/file...

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN- On September 8, 2018, tens of thousands of people joined over 830 actions in 91 countries under the banner of Rise for Climate to demonstrate the urgency of the climate crisis. Communities around the world shined a spotlight on the increasing impacts they are experiencing and demanded local action to keep fossil fuels in the ground. There were hundreds of creative events and actions that challenged fossil fuels and called for a swift and just transition to 100% renewable energy for all. Event organizers emphasized community-led solutions, starting in places most impacted by pollution and climate change.

Various items that you're not supposed to smuggle into the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Nunchucks, for instance. Also, no sword umbrellas.
My first image made for Red Line Art Works - a global gathering point for images by Artists, Photographers and other Creative People (in any media or artform) who are concerned about the big global issues and the state of our world. See our Website : www.redlineartworks.org. It is a community-based and not-for-profit organisation Founded by myself in 2012.
Anyone can take part and we invite you to contribute your own images to this project. Either (a) send us a medium-sized jpeg by Email to : redlineartworks@yahoo.co.uk, or (b) add an image to our Flickr Group : www.flickr.com/groups/redlineartworks. You can find the Brief in the first Discussion Item : 'Red Line Art Works - Your Brief'. After that, simply Join the Group and upload a photo, scan or video to it. Many Thanks.
During Spring 2013 we invited the best photos and other pieces of art work into our Exhibition of Red Line Art Works and they were seen by over 4,000 visitors. This took place at an annual two-week Festival of Arts events held in May / June in the UNESCO World Heritage City of Bath, UK. More Exhibitions will be held in future, at different locations. See our Website : www.redlineartworks.org

Basilica (2008)
Comissioned by the Global Justice Center for the exhibition Visions of Global Justice, 2008.
What is Global Justice? Thomas Nagel observes in his essay “The Problem of Global Justice”:
“concepts and theories of global justice are in the early stages of formation, and it is not clear what the main questions are, let alone the main possible answers”.[1]
Perhaps it is emblematic of our globalised society that such a seemingly simple concept, which most everyone agrees is desirable, is in fact so deeply complex and difficult to agree upon. The work I have created in response is called Basilica, after the Roman public judiciary building. The meaning subsequently extended in the Christian era to refer to a large or important church, reflecting the historically widespread concept that justice rested ultimately in god.
It is an audiovisual sculpture consisting of arrangements of simple patterns that interact to create something dynamic and emergently complex, different for each person who interacts with it. Without the regard and input of the interactor, the work ostensibly has very little inherent meaning, other than that bestowed by convention, such as the spiral structure and the colours. White is seen in some cultures to represent innocence and purity, a state from which global justice can be conceived. White is also seen as the colour of hospitals, and therefore perhaps represents one of the aims of the contemporary global justice movement, that of universal access to health care. Purple is regarded in some cultures as symbolising power and nobility, reflecting the aim of universal empowerment through global justice. Purple is also reportedly favoured by young children, returning the cycle to innocence and purity.
The sounds in the work are based upon the inversion of the connotations of global justice, that of global terror. Much violence and mass murder has been perpetrated ostensibly in the name of justice, and such acts continue to occur globally to this day. Therefore, I have sourced the sounds of gunshots (in particular the AK47, a symbol to some of the global terror movement), bomb explosions and screams, manipulating the harmonics according to a rational scale of my own devising, to create a compellingly beautiful yet haunting sonic system.[2] Some philosophers, such as Peter Singer, extend the notion of global justice to all sentient beings, not only humans, therefore I have also used the sounds of animals being slaughtered.
This work attempts to use the qualities associated with concepts of global justice as a basis for its formal audiovisual structure. Therefore it is complex, with emergent meanings and qualities contingent on the person interacting with it at any given moment. Difficult to define, complex and ever changing, yet simple to conceive of. I would like to acknowledge the assistance of Nicole Lawther in the conceptualisation and design of this work.
