My intent is to express the need for better environmental laws and practices. The world’s forests are disappearing at an alarming rate. Each year about 13 million hectares of the world’s forests are lost due to deforestation. Deforestation is the second leading contributor to carbon emissions causing global warming. The cutting of the world’s old growth forests and tropical rain forests is causing unprecedented loss of species and seriously unbalances the earth’s ecosystem. We need stronger domestic and international forest policies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1454697053122-Y0DHCO2VPGHNS41M74EA/deforestation_entire.jpg Installations http://www.margaret-whiting.com/west daily 0.75 2016-03-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1457396833306-4CT9KJE2X8ZXG08V6SGP/Whiting.1.jpg Work made with encyclopedias https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1457396857844-2SWMUNYXSGRE8SRDS2CE/image-asset.jpeg Work made with encyclopedias https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1457396953058-FJ59LMF0OPAR51V461YT/Whiting.detail.2.jpg Work made with encyclopedias http://www.margaret-whiting.com/west-1 daily 0.75 2014-05-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1382133895044-86VUIWKLA6XTVXVWY7H6/4.jpg West - West All images by the talented Matthias Heiderich http://www.margaret-whiting.com/map-artwork daily 0.75 2021-05-07 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/t/6094ac469e2cdd5701e04b8e/1457397622578/ Work made with maps https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/56de1e379f72669f9ffa42ac/56de1ed259827e74477b2c39/1457397622578/ Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604248573033-ZVQOBX5I3YKF2ESV4L83/GEOLOGICAL+SURVEY.PENNSYLVANIA.small+file.jpg Work made with maps I placed human anatomy textbook illustrations onto early 1900s geologic survey maps from many of our 50 States. There are striking visual similarities between our bodies and the natural landscape, and humans are connected with the land on many levels. Our impact on the land affects human health since air pollution and disposed waste will ultimately lead back to us. I use images of the eyeball because we need to see more clearly about what is happening to our water and land. I incorporate images of the human brain because we continue to pollute our rivers- even though we already have too many impaired waterbodies that we depend on for our own survival. We must protect our environment to safeguard our own health. Oil wells and coal mines are documented in these old maps. Man has certainly altered the land since these maps were printed. Our burning of fossil fuels has caused a climate crisis. We must move quickly to 100% renewable energy in order to avoid reaching the tipping point of irreversible warming. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604248618162-Y4EON82S09HUNU1VAKRJ/U.S.Geological+Survey.Pennsylvania.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604248690396-48V3IJTL255H9WLOOW4W/U.S.+GEOLOGICAL+SURVEY.+WYOMING.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604248944620-GI1BFTFGYB8Z8NASFY68/US+GEOLOGICAL+SURVEY.INDIANA.Vincennes.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604249022064-59ZWXMXV546MFELDMAYZ/Geological+Survey.SD+and+Nebraska.smaller+file.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1606695160072-3TX1V53RXYNPRP8R8TPU/GEOLOGICAL+SURVEY.VIRGINIA.MARYLAND.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1604248757556-K8N94BF0R8X8X44POMZ1/U.S.+Geological+Survey.detail.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1606695188671-08XSSNAGBA2797HTPR6R/Geological+Survey.Georgia.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1457397480421-BVON21ZBGPZU991TNJKY/Geologic+Survey.Maryland.jpg Work made with maps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56b1077622482ef10d7423bd/1620352713949-KVLUTBFMI6Q74BDKVKWH/Geological+Survey.Wisconsin.Iowa.jpg Work made with maps http://www.margaret-whiting.com/blog-forte daily 0.75 2025-05-12 http://www.margaret-whiting.com/blog-forte/2013/9/20/txj2xx0v8z4pvfqifnkoy769mmbn42-46z4z monthly 0.5 2013-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1380134615402-CFVY7DVKTKAMMEUVAFO1/matthias-9.jpg Blog - Summer in Berlin http://www.margaret-whiting.com/blog-forte/2013/9/20/new-pictures-from-ost-tt76e monthly 0.5 2013-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1380134654074-6RTKOL9KFWBAWGH3VPE7/matthias-37.jpg Blog - New pictures from OST https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1380134646426-64MT50GT4WHEMZO7KWS7/matthias-32.jpg Blog - New pictures from OST http://www.margaret-whiting.com/blog-forte/2013/9/20/spektrum-eins-cm9t9 monthly 0.5 2013-10-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1379716817226-TY7FDC8KWGYC9G4GHIZT/b01f9e30717d1d163677777ab34ab1dc.jpg Blog - Spektrum Eins Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1379717056328-V2KWLVQHSC7P88IH3ONL/2b7eb3dfa76e21de1166f115214b7f0f.jpg Blog - Spektrum Eins http://www.margaret-whiting.com/blog-forte/category/Exploring monthly 0.5 http://www.margaret-whiting.com/resume daily 0.75 2021-05-06 http://www.margaret-whiting.com/new-page daily 0.75 2020-10-18 http://www.margaret-whiting.com/biography daily 0.75 2026-01-23 http://www.margaret-whiting.com/read-me-forte daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1377616053602-SMX7MP0YBIW91I0BIW2R/MECO+%2820130827%29.jpg Read Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51e6b9c9e4b050adffbe392c/1377616058866-XDBA3BE26TPEK3SCRT9J/Screen+Shot+2013-08-27+at+11.06.39+AM.jpg Read Me
