Original artwork description:

This watercolor was made specifically to enter the Octopus Energy Climate Change competition called ‘Portraits from the Precipice.
Global carbon emissions from fossil fuels accounts for 90% of all emissions from human activity. If we have any hope of fighting climate change and protecting the future of our planet, we need to ditch fossil fuels (Black Energy) and start investing in renewable sources of energy (Green Energy).
The idea for this artwork was inspired by the activities of environmental activist Greta Thunberg. In this picture, the image of a young girl, a teenager, who is looking at the polluted world with bewilderment. But in in her eyes there is a determination to change this situation; she is the image of a new generation that is beginning to influence politics, trying to solve global environmental problems at such a young age.
