The traveling art exhibit, co-sponsored by Mayor Thomas M. Menino’s Greenovate Boston initiative, had its grand opening near Brewer Fountain Plaza on the Boston Common Thursday. Other globes are on display at the John Hancock Tower and the Massachusetts Statehouse.
The globes are each 5 feet in diameter and have been designed by local, national and international artists, schools, companies and other groups to raise awareness about climate change and inspire everyone-kids, adults, governments, corporations and community leaders-to embrace solutions.
