Looking at the data about greenhouse emissions by individual countries and their Carbon Majors, Paolo Cirio will propose conceptual and provocative art interventions to address the Venice Climate Debt paid directly by tourists. 
Starting from the introduction of ticketing and entry fees for tourists visiting Venice, the concept can be push forward with creating a new reality in which the entry fee can be proportional to the amount of greenhouse gases emissions of the tourist’s country origin.
During the workshop Paolo Cirio will discuss emissions data, attribution science, carbon tax and credits, global climate agreements, and how these can be material for works of investigative and interventionist art. Furthermore, the workshop will be a chance to debate on policies on tourist tax, the controversial entrance of a city with tickets, and generally overturism globally.
The workshop will culminate with a small intervention with proposing the entrance fee directly to the tourists in Venice.

In 2021, Paolo Cirio established an utopian international Climate Tribunal to accuse the major 100 fossil fuel firms with data, graphs, and documents that he transformed in artworks.
Through creative forms of journalism and activism for public policies, Paolo Cirio investigates and intervenes into the social, economic, and cultural issues of contemporary society. His work researches the social fields impacted by technology, geopolitics, and economics in order to address human rights, inequality, justice, and democracy.

Osservando i dati sulle emissioni di gas serra dei singoli paesi e delle loro Carbon Majors, Paolo Cirio proporrà un intervento artistico, concettuale e provocatorio, in cui saranno i turisti a pagare il debito climatico. 
Partendo dalla notizia dell’introduzione del biglietto d’accesso per i turisti che visitano Venezia, il workshop crea una nuova realtà in cui la tariffa d’ingresso è proporzionale alla quantità di emissioni di gas serra del paese di provenienza del turista.
Durante il workshop, Paolo Cirio parlerà dei dati sulle emissioni, della scienza dell’attribuzione, della carbon tax e dei crediti, degli accordi globali sul clima e di come questi possono diventare materiale per opere d’arte investigativa e interventista. Inoltre, il workshop sarà un’occasione per discutere delle politiche sulla tassa di soggiorno, del controverso tema del biglietto di ingesso e, in generale, dell’overturism a livello globale.
Il workshop culminerà con un piccolo intervento che proporrà la tassa d’ingresso direttamente ai turisti di Venezia.

Nel 2021, Paolo Cirio ha istituito un utopico Tribunale internazionale del clima per accusare le 100 principali aziende produttrici di combustibili fossili con dati, grafici e documenti che si trasformano in opere d’arte.
Attraverso forme creative di giornalismo e attivismo, Paolo Cirio indaga e interviene sulle questioni sociali, economiche e culturali della società contemporanea. Il suo lavoro indaga i campi sociali impattati dalla tecnologia, dalla geopolitica e dall’economia per affrontare i temi dei diritti umani, della disuguaglianza, della giustizia e della democrazia.

The Venice Climate Camp 2022 is the opportunity to bring together art and performing arts workers to initiate a discussion that will lead to the collective writing of a manifesto on the role of art in the struggle for climate justice and in the creation of new ecologies (which take into account the intersection of environmental and social facts). If the pandemic had already dramatically underlined the consequences of extractivist anthropization, the war in Ukraine (in addition to its immediate death toll) is a manifestation of what Andreas Malm has called ‘fossil fascism’, a mix of authoritarianism and fossil fuels that weakens the already insufficient measures to combat global warming.  The scarcity of Russian gas has brought coal back into vogue and, in Italy, the construction of new re-gasifiers is on the agenda. The decision to organize the workshop at the Venice Climate Camp (promoted by Rise Up For Climate Justice and Fridays For Future) reflects our belief in the importance of freeing art from the capture of institutional circuits. We want to experience, as participants in social movements, aesthetic-political concatenations that interpret creativity as a radical character of the social and not as a commodity. The participants also share the conviction that the fight for climate justice is, necessarily, a fight against and beyond extractive capitalism, even in its green version (actually an attempt to turn the crisis into new accumulation).

The workshop will be a moment of discussion based on the practices of the invited guests, who convoke some central themes: the use of art as a method of inquiry and visualization in the climate crisis; the production of activist art forms that look at the performativity of direct action; art as a ground for radical imagination in designing new ecologies that reshape the relationship between human and non-human; art as an archive of movement practices and so on.

During Camp days, in addition to the main meeting moment, there will be a screening of films by Oliver Ressler, a workshop by Paolo Cirio and collective performative practice by Andreco.

First participants: Sale Docks, Institute of Radical Imagination, Caracol Olol Jackson, Rise Up For Climate Justice, Andreco, Annaclara Basilicò, Paolo Cirio, Terike Haapoja, Rosa Jijon, Francesco Martone, Teresa Masini, Oliver Ressler, Federica Timeto
