The Extinction Symbol was created by Xylo,[1] a street artist active in London.[2] It represents the Holocene or Sixth Mass Extinction.[3] On Xylo's 2011 website the symbol was described as "The circle signifies the planet, while the hourglass inside serves as a warning that time is rapidly running out for many species."[3] The artist expressed on Flickr that the idea was to create a bold yet easy to use symbol that anyone could use, similar to the Peace symbol or Anarchist sign.[4] UsageThe symbol is used by environmental action group Extinction Rebellion,[5] as its logo.[6] Extinction Gong an installation as part of the 2018 Disappearing Legacies: The World as Forest exhibition in Berlin featured the symbol as a centerpiece.[7]References1. ^{{cite news |last1=Rose-Innes |first1=Olivia |title=Sign of our times |url=https://www.health24.com/columnists/sign-of-our-times-20130920 |accessdate=26 March 2019 |work=Health24 |date=20 September 2013}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=London’s Xylo Creates Street iPhones to Highlight Chinese Suicides |url=https://hyperallergic.com/7815/xylo-iphones-london-suicides-china/ |website=Hyperallergic |accessdate=26 March 2019 |date=6 July 2010}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |title=Extinction Symbol |url=http://www.xylo.me/2.html |website=www.xylo.me/2.html |accessdate=26 March 2019 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110509021807/http://www.xylo.me/2.html |archivedate=9 May 2011 |date=9 May 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=Extinction Symbol {{!}} VOICES IN THE WILDERNESS: A Prayer for Wild Things |url=https://www.flickr.com/groups/voices/discuss/72157625872341109/ |website=Flickr |accessdate=26 March 2019 |language=en-us |date=7 February 2011}} 5. ^{{cite news |last1=Clifton |first1=Katy |title=Police make 14 arrests after thousands of activists descend on London |url=https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/extinction-rebellion-protest-london-police-make-14-arrests-after-thousands-of-activists-descend-on-a3999251.html |accessdate=26 March 2019 |work=Evening Standard |date=24 November 2018 |language=en}} 6. ^{{cite news |last1=Osborne |first1=Mark |title=9 arrested for 'die-in' protest at Rockefeller Center ice skating rink |url=https://abc7chicago.com/9-arrested-for-die-in-protest-at-rockefeller-center-ice-skating-rink/5108386/ |accessdate=28 March 2019 |work=ABC7 Chicago |date=27 January 2019 |language=en}} 7. ^{{cite news |last1=Valentine |first1=Ben |title=Memorializing the Accelerating Loss of Planetary Life |url=https://hyperallergic.com/441541/memorializing-the-accelerating-loss-of-planetary-life/ |accessdate=26 March 2019 |work=Hyperallergic |date=19 July 2018}} External links
