Gary Braasch is a photographer who has been documenting the changing global environment since 1975. This issue's “Curated Spaces” section comprises a photo essay with photographs from his ten-year project, “World View of Global Warming,” and the resulting book, Earth under Fire: How Global Warming Is Changing the World (2007).
