Medieval Art. Romanesque and Gothic.pdf
The document summarizes Romanesque and Gothic styles of medieval art in Europe between the 11th-15th centuries. Romanesque art developed in churches and monasteries to depict biblical scenes and strengthen Christianity. It used elements of Roman architecture like arched vaults. Gothic art flourished as cities and the church grew in importance. Gothic cathedrals featured pointed arches, ribbed vaults and large stained glass windows to let in more light. Both styles used sculpture and paintings on church walls and in manuscripts to convey religious messages through depictions of Bible stories and saints.
Romanesque art
Between the 11th and 13th centuries, Romanesque art developed with a style similar to Roman art. Romanesque architecture featured stone churches built in a Latin cross layout with a nave, transept, and apse. Barrel vaults and thick walls supported heavy stone roofs, while buttresses reinforced the walls. Inside, the churches had few windows, making it dark, and paintings and sculptures served to educate the largely illiterate population. Romanesque paintings used frescoes directly on walls, while sculptures often decorated capitals and altars.

Recycling and pollution
Recycling helps reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions which contributes to climate change. Proper recycling and reducing car, trash burning, and fireplace use can help lower air pollution. If plastic waste is not curbed, fish populations are at risk as many ingest plastic instead of food and can die with plastic in their stomachs, threatening fish in the seas.
Plastic pollution (1)
Plastic pollution in the ocean is a significant problem, with over 30 million bottles and cans thrown into the sea daily in Spain alone and over 1 million masks found in oceans this year. An organization called The Ocean Cleanup was founded in 2013 to develop extraction technologies to remove plastic already in the oceans and intercept more at rivers, having received over $31.5 million in donations to address this issue threatening wildlife such as the whale found with over 125 plastic items in its body.
Recycle
Plastic recycling is important to address as plastics are contaminating marine animals and most die of starvation with plastic filled stomachs. Plastics in the ocean fill the stomachs of marine animals so they can no longer eat and they starve to death. Increased plastic recycling efforts are needed to reduce plastic waste that ends up in oceans harming wildlife.
Pollution
The project aimed to reduce waste in the region by cleaning beaches, roads, and seas with the help of citizen volunteers. After the cleanup efforts, activities and conferences were held to raise awareness about global and local environmental problems caused by coastal waste, particularly plastics. Citizens were engaged to help clean the area and learn about sustainable consumption habits.
