The walls of the United Nations Headquarters in New York City will be lit this weekend — and crawling with rare creatures.

Just before thousands of people are expected to descend on the city in droves for the Peoples’ Climate March, endangered species, many of them threatened by climate change, will have their time in the spotlight.

Endangered species and other imagery telling the story of climate change will be projected onto the side of the UN building on the weekend leading up to the UN Climate Summit. The Oceanic Preservation Society, a Colorado-based non-profit that promotes marine conservation and environmentalism, will be hosting the event on the evening of September 20. The Dodo will be participating as a sponsor.
