Between 2001 and 2011 the MTA sank over 2,500 decommissioned subway cars in the Atlantic ocean. This had the effect of creating a vast thriving ecosystem for fish and other marine life.

Behold the dazzling colors of the black-and-gold sapsucking slug (Cyerce nigricans). This sea slug secretes an unappetizing mucus to dissuade predators. When threatened, it can drop its colorful cerata, or leaf-like outgrowths, to create a distraction. This species is found in the western Indian and Pacific Oceans, where it dwells on coral or rocky reefs and snacks on algae. Photo: profmollusc, CC BY-NC-ND 4.0, iNaturalist

Isamu Noguchi, Memorial to Man, 1947

More than a decade before humans traveled beyond Earth’s atmosphere, Isamu Noguchi imagined civilization transplanted to Mars, gazing back at an abandoned Earth. Such unprecedented destruction marked a disturbing new chapter in human development. The end of life on Earth seemed likely, even inevitable, after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. To commemorate humankind’s former home, Noguchi proposed a land art project, Memorial to Man,in 1947. In its schematized human face, its large scale, and the use of earth as its material, the project recalls such ancient land drawings as the Nasca lines of Peru – made 1,500 to 2000 years ago – thereby emphasizing civilization’s enduring history.
