✨️ Sharing our new #ClimateActionMural, just completed in New York City with artist @victor.ash.studio! 🌊🧜♀️🗽
Titled “The Mermaid of Manhattan,” this 12-story mural brings the conversation about the growing threat of rising sea levels into the streets of New York City. Rising seas are a global challenge. In the United States, coastal flooding now occurs three times more often than 30 years ago, and sea levels in New York are projected to rise approximately 1.2 feet by 2050, according to @climatecentral . On the other side of the planet, low-lying Pacific Island nations face existential threats from rising seas, and youth-led movements such as 350 Pacific and @pacificclimatewarriors work courageously to protect their islands, cultures and futures.
This mural connects Manhattan, an island itself, to vulnerable coastal communities around the world. It depicts a beautiful mermaid adrift on a small, fragile iceberg, gazing toward the Manhattan skyline. Inspired by New York’s diversity and the people of Pacific Island nations, the artwork offers a poetic reflection on our relationship with the ocean.
Half-human and half-sea creature, the mermaid symbolizes our deep connection to the sea and our vulnerability in the face of climate change. Her fragile refuge evokes the homes, land and communities threatened by rising waters. The oysters depicted in the mural are a nod to @billionoyster , whose work restoring oyster reefs in New York Harbor contributes to coastal resilience. 🦪✨
Unveiled ahead of COP31 in Antalya, Turkey, it reminds us that rising seas are a global challenge and that every action matters.
This mural was made possible thanks to the generous support of Standard Communities, which also donated the wall.

🌊 Some glide above the water. Others are powered by batteries. Could electric ferries be the future of cleaner travel in the United States?
Climate Correspondent Ben Tracy, with #ClimateCentral, explores how hydrofoil technology and advances in battery power are making electric ferries a more practical alternative to diesel-powered vessels.

Shel and Tom are curious: Why are fire weather days more common in the western U.S. than in the East?🔥
One big reason: humidity.
In our latest episode, #ClimateCentral's Kaitlyn Trudeau stops by to break down fire weather for us and dig into how humidity, heat, and a changing climate are shaping wildfire risk across the country.

In recent years, climate change has led to higher temperatures.
But how has it affected gun violence?
A new study by @climatecentral found that approximately 2,000 shootings between 2021 and 2025 in the 100 U.S. cities with the most gun violence are attributable to high temperatures.

All 435 U.S. congressional districts have warmed since 1970 — by 2.8°F on average. But how many people believe they've personally experienced the effects?
Human-caused climate change is the leading driver, and is responsible for 91% of warming across districts on average.
Yet, only 32%–67% of adults across districts believe they've personally experienced global warming, according to @climate.change.communication.

🕷️ You know what's scarier than spiders? A future with less clean water.
As climate change drives a hotter, drier future, communities across the Colorado River Basin are preparing for less available water. In Phoenix, one solution is turning treated wastewater into drinking water.
The @cityofphoenixaz's first advanced water purification facility is expected to produce nearly 7 million gallons of purified water per day at full capacity.

🚤 Look, up on the water! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s an electric ferry!
Some ferries can actually fly — lifting above the water’s surface to reduce drag and improve efficiency. And that’s just one innovation helping make cleaner water transportation a reality.
Climate Correspondent Ben Tracy, with #ClimateCentral, explores how hydrofoil boats in New York Harbor and battery-powered ferries in San Francisco Bay could help cut diesel pollution, lower operating costs, and transform how we travel on the water.

✨️ Sharing with you “The Mermaid of Manhattan,” our new monumental 12-story mural by artist VictorAsh, that we just completed in New York City! 🌊🧜♀️🗽
Its purpose is to start conversations on the growing threat of rising seas across the world.
As world leaders gather for COP31 this early November, this mural reminds us of the urgency of climate action and the importance of protecting vulnerable communities.
This video is an ode to the tireless efforts of communities in New York and the Pacific Islands working to limit the impacts of rising seas and protect the places we all call home. 🌎
📍 440 W 41st Street, New York City
The mural was made possible thanks to the kind support of Standard Communities.
An immense shout out to our friends at @climatecentral, @billionoyster and @pacificclimatewarriors for the incredible work they are doing leading the change.
And, thank you @sheratonlincolnharbor for making sure we could peacefully recharge our batteries every day.

When extreme weather strikes, misinformation can spread faster than wildfire.
📱 Rumors swirl on social media
📞 Communication lines go down
📈 Fear and frustration rise
How can we cut through the noise and share accurate, thoughtful information before, during, and after extreme weather events?

✨ More sneak peeks of our new #WIP mural by @victor.ash.studio in Manhattan! ✨
Standing like a monumental lighthouse in front of the Hudson River, this gigantic mermaid drifting on her island made of ice invites us to reflect on rising sea levels and the growing threat they pose to islands and coastal communities around the world—including right here, in the heart of New York City. 🧜♀️🌊
Our planet is fragile, but its future is still in our hands. Let's join forces to protect it!
According to the brand new UN Environment Programme’s (UNEP) Emissions Gap Report, our planet continues to warm-up faster than expected. Yet, the message is not one of resignation: every fraction of a degree matters, and every action counts!

A shoutout to our friends at @billionoyster for the incredible work they are doing in NYC’s Harbor and also to @pacificclimatewarriors and its youth leaders that are leading the charge.
