Vincent Moccio – Protest Art Blog

Josh MacPhee’s “Daddy, what did YOU do in the Climate War” was an art poster made to protest the way President Trump in 2017 was handling environmental issues. The poster is modeled off the WW1 recruitment poster, “Daddy, What Did You Do in the Great War,” except it depicts modern day threats of climate change by adding the masks and pollution filter. This piece of art is still relevant today because climate change continues to be an issue that is ignored by our government. We see the rise in natural disasters and habitat loss, but not enough is done to help mitigate those effects of climate change.
