Berry creative designs climate change stamps with heat reactive ink

These stamps by Finnish studio Berry Creative feature images of birds and snow clouds that turn into skeletons and thunderstorms when heated to send a message about the consequences of climate change.

Commissioned by the Finnish Post, the Climate Change Stamps aim to offer an innovative way of communicating the negative effects that rising temperatures will have on Finland.

Printed in colour-transforming ink that reacts to heat, these symbols change from black to clear when warmed up by being rubbed with a finger, revealing additional designs underneath.

The snow cloud transforms into a thunderstorm to represent the loss of winter snowfall, while the depiction of immigration turns to mass migration as climate refugees are forced to leave their homes and relocate.

The bird is also made to turn into a skeleton, as a representation of the extinction of many of Finland's native species.

These hidden images reveal what the future will look like "if we don't act fast to fight climate change".

"Unlike the effect in the stamp, climate change is not reversible," said the studio.

when meeting with my tutor, we came to the decision that I could use heat changing ink for the book cover. that way when people pick up the book. images underneath could be revealed. for example, my trees could turn into barren lifeless ones.

“To fully process what we are losing on Earth, I had to stop responding only as a scientist. My way forward comes instead from my experience of illness. My stem cell transplant wasn’t pointless just because I will, eventually, die of something. The years I’ve gained, however few or many they may be, are precious beyond measure. So too with the Earth. Each generation of humans living in relative abundance, each species saved from extinction for another 50 years, and each wild place left to function and inspire in its wildness, is precious beyond measure.”

— Alison Spodek Keimowitz (via hope-for-the-planet)

The second installment of my class project "Introspections on Climate Change," on the topic of climate anxiety in youth. The friend who inspired this one had only ever lived in cities and never seen the stars - bringing him to my family's farm was a neat experience for everyone!

So I wasn’t at university today…

But doing something far more important than listening to lectures.

This piece was inspired when I heard about the terrible fires raging throughout the Amazon rainforest. I thought today would be a good day to post it here in honor of the #climatestrike. Let’s save our planet!
