A rock poster like no other 🤘😝

"In this fictional concert poster for sea creatures that have survived up until the year 2030 (the predicted year in which the effects of climate change will be irreversible), I explored the idea of the lengths that these animals will be forced to undergo, migrating to the coldest ocean on Earth in order to escape the warmth and destruction that climate change has brought," wrote Mayumi Dimalanta (17, Nevada), the artist behind this Honorable Mention award-winning piece from our 2020 Ocean Awareness Contest.

"After years of human complacency, the animals have organized this 'Underwater Armageddon Concert' as a grim, but final hurrah for the end of their world." 🎸

She added, "I hope that viewers of the design will realize that this potential doomsday is inevitable, unless we all make steps to limit our carbon footprint and pressure major corporations to follow suit." 🌎

We love Mayumi's grim sense of humor in this piece. It's the kind of original perspective we're looking for in our 2022 Ocean Awareness Contest: THE FUNNY THING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE, now open to submissions!

👉 If you're 11-18 years old, we invite you to submit visual art, performing art, creative writing, film, multimedia, poetry, and/or spoken word that challenge our expectations for what climate change messaging should look like.

The Contest is free to enter, with a chance of winning prizes of up to $1,500 each! 💰Deadline to submit is June 13, 2022.
