We are the last generation...

Here is my preliminary sketch for my environmental awareness poster. 

The last term I was studying Ecology and sustainability subject and for one essay I discovered Ban Ki-moon's quote stating: "We are the last generation that can fight climate change. We have a duty to act." This quote touched my heart and every since it just doesn't go out of my head and I remember it with every my act. 

On my future poster, I want to show melting planet Earth. It is more like melting ice cape and increasing water level and overall raise of temperature, due to a high level of CO2 emissions. This melting water is playing the role of the sand and sand clocks, showing that there is not much time left. You can also observe the time limit from the background. It will be clear on the poster, that it is a sunset, foreshowing the coming night = the end. No one will be able to live in such a circumstances. 

Therefore, we - humanity - have a duty to act. That is why I  chose man's hand holding time and melting planet. Our lives and the life of whole Earth are in our hands. It is already too late, but we still can fight Climate Change and rescue mother Earth from Apocalypse.
