REFLECTION QUESTIONClimate & EcosystemsWhy is art an important way for you to express sustainability values?
Leong yip 4/04/2023 11:29 PMArt has the power to communicate complex ideas and emotions in a way that words alone cannot. It can reach people on an emotional level, inspiring empathy and connection to the natural world.
