Quilts as a form of activism can be the bridge between science and the public. They bring together the urgent ideas behind what we are seeing with climate change through accessible art forms. We talk about this and so much more. We even share tips on making simple shopping changes by making your own soap, yogurt and almond milk!

Sue Herman has won International awards for her quilts, including the very recent Best of Show for "Dear Humans".

Her fabric creations connect her to the spectacular places and wildlife she has seen in her travels.  She aims to give the animal kingdom a voice, by transforming white cotton into lifelike images through many hours of precise painting with dyes and thread. She is passionate about protecting earth’s creatures along with their habitats and hopes her work will inspire you to share her sense of urgency around this message.
