Tools for a Warming Planet ist eine Sammlung aktueller und spekulativer Werkzeuge zur Anpassung an eine sich verändernde Welt. Es werden neue Werkzeuge benötigt, um das Klimachaos zu verstehen, darauf zu reagieren, es zu kommunizieren, zu bauen und gemeinsam damit zu leben. Diese dank Crowdsourcing erstellte Sammlung zeigt aufregende Zukunftsentwürfe von Designer*innen, Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen und Wissenschaftler*innen aus aller Welt.
