Reflection

To emphasize the urgency of climate change, I depicted a post-mass extinction impression of the ocean, where 99.99% of the species have been driven into extinction by the impact of climate change. However, the survival of a few species has gained human interest, so an interviewer is sent to learn about how they evolved to adapt to their environment. As someone who has been engaging in spreading awareness of the environmental crisis, I am aware that the most valid way to get people to pay attention to what we have to say is to make the work engaging and innovative. Therefore, art plays a big part in helping the spread of awareness. It is competent in raising enthusiasm for making a change and can bring empathy towards those being affected by our choices regarding the environment.
