Some of the math behind studies of air bubbles trapped in glacial ice cores, is embroidered in a graph depicting 400,000 years of Earth's atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide.  The graph is surrounded by stitched map fragments, my photographs from winter cross country ski explorations in the Lake Superior region, and satellite images of the ozone hole over Antarctica.  Climate Change modeling equations are embroidered around the outside of the photographs. A 1914 quotation from the intrepid Antarctic explorer, Ernest Shackleton surrounds the reassembled map pieces. The final outside gold brocade binding is printed with text from many climate change studies and documents.
