Reflection

According to major studies, we only have 11 years left to save our climate ------- the year 2030 will change us as the future generation. My drawing is indeed inspired by this fact. Our mother earth is represented by the basket. It is overflowing. Once the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere reach a certain level (predicted to be the year 2030 if we don't do anything), the Earth will tilt over like the basket. The sea level is rising. Waves submerge the major economic center and destroy civilization. This is the result of man-made population. People hurt the Earth for money, and in return, nature hurts the overall economics back. I included three whales in the bottom of the drawing to show that marine populations are migrating because their habitats are destroyed by the warming climate. As a part of my school's environmental action club, we worked together to spread awareness about climate change in our town. We started composting at our school and now hope to move towards changing the district. As an individual, I am planning to change my daily routine to leave fewer carbon footprints and push for the Green New Deal in my area.
