This is an old pice I finished a few months ago, it’s a collage of all the things I like.

It’s meant to represent me and how I’ve grown these past 2 years.

Hope y’all like it as much as I do :)

HAPPY WORLD OCEAN DAY! 🙂💙🌊

Did you know that 70% of the oxygen on Earth is produced by our oceans? The plants in the ocean produce even more oxygen than all the trees on land combined!

Unfortunately, the ongoing deep sea mining has been destroying countless ecosystems and the creatures that live there. This has to stop in order to protect our future! Do I need to mention the problem that is over fishing? Culling for no good reason? Even more unfortunate, every single day, a dump trucks worth of trash ends up in the oceans 😓 Let's do our part to help reduce the amount of trash that pollutes these life giving waters.

Buy reusable water bottles!

Buy reusable bags to use at the grocery store!

Recycle ♻️ (if you can)!

Participate in beach clean ups OR pick up trash in general when you casually go to the beach!

Glacier Caravan 2023 - Legambiente's journey through the Alps during the phases of the climate crisis.

The 2023 Glacier Caravan campaign through the Alps, organized by Legambiente, has officially begun.

Embark on a meaningful adventure with Legambiente Alpi with the Carovana dei Ghiacciai 2023. This journey will take you through the breathtaking Alps to observe and learn about the impact of the climate crisis stages on our planet.

Legambiente Onlus is launching the Glacier Caravan from August 20th to September 10th, 2023! They will cross the Alps with CIPRA and its Italian representative living in the Alps - CIPRA rappresentanza italiana - vivere nelle Alpi - along with the Italian Glaciological Committee - Comitato Glaciologico Italiano  - to document the dramatic retreat of glaciers caused by global warming.

This tour includes six stops between Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. It involves monitoring, hiking, art, and music to raise awareness about protecting our glaciers.

From 1997 to 2022, glaciers in Europe lost approximately 880 cubic kilometers of ice. The hardest-hit region is the Alps, where the average glacier ice thickness has reduced by 34 meters.

So let's join Legambiente Onlus on their Glacier Caravan journey through the Alps to document the devastating effects of global warming on glaciers. This tour includes monitoring, hiking, art, and music to raise awareness about protecting our glaciers. Let's take action to preserve our planet earth!

So, in the end, from the 20th of August to the 10th of September, a journey in 6 stages crosses national borders for the first time. The journey begins in Valle d'Aosta with the Rutor glacier, continues to Piedmont with the Belvedere glacier, then to Lombardy with the Dosdè glaciers, and further to Trentino-Alto Adige with the Lares and Mandrone glaciers. Eventually, the journey reaches Austria with the Ochsental Glacier and Switzerland with the Morteratsch Glacier.

And most of all, recognizing that the climate crisis is accelerating, causing devastating effects such as fires, droughts, heat waves, and record temperatures worldwide, is crucial. The Alpine glaciers are not immune to the impact of climate change and global warming. They are becoming more fragile, vulnerable, and unstable, posing an increased threat to their existence.

📍📍📍 So, do you really care about the environment? Please read on:

Planting Seeds of Change: Celebrating Earth Day Every Day

Shaina Tranquilino

April 29, 2024

As the Earth blooms with the vibrant colours of spring, there's no better time to reflect on our relationship with our planet than on Earth Day, celebrated annually on April 22nd. This Earth Day, I found myself compelled to take action, not just for a single day but as a commitment to a sustainable future. Inspired by the spirit of Earth Month, I decided to plant a tree, a simple yet powerful gesture to honour our planet and contribute to its well-being. But as I dug into the soil and watched the sapling take root, I realized that every day is an opportunity to make a positive impact on the Earth.

The Significance of Earth Day:

Since its inception in 1970, Earth Day has served as a global reminder of the environmental challenges facing our planet. From climate change and deforestation to pollution and habitat loss, the threats to our environment are vast and urgent. Earth Day symbolizes a collective call to action, urging individuals and communities to come together in defense of our planet. It serves as a reminder that we all have a role to play in preserving the natural world for future generations.

Planting Trees: A Timeless Tradition:

One of the most timeless and impactful ways to honor Earth Day is by planting trees. Trees are the lungs of our planet, absorbing carbon dioxide, producing oxygen, and providing vital habitat for countless species. By planting a tree, we not only mitigate the effects of climate change but also enrich our communities with beauty and biodiversity. And while Earth Day may serve as a catalyst for tree-planting initiatives around the world, the truth is that any day is a good day to plant a tree. Whether it's in your backyard, a community park, or a reforestation project halfway across the globe, every tree planted represents a tangible step towards a greener, more sustainable future.

Honouring Earth Every Day:

While Earth Day serves as a powerful reminder of our collective responsibility to the planet, the truth is that our actions should extend far beyond a single day of the year. Each of us has the power to make a difference in our daily lives, whether it's through reducing our carbon footprint, conserving resources, or advocating for environmental policies. By adopting sustainable practices and fostering a deeper connection with the natural world, we can honour Earth not just on April 22nd, but every day of the year.

As I stand beside the newly planted tree, I'm reminded of the profound interconnectedness of all life on Earth. Each tree, each blade of grass, and each breath of air is part of a delicate web of existence that sustains us all. This Earth Day, let us renew our commitment to protecting and preserving our planet, not just for ourselves, but for all living beings that call Earth home. And let us remember that while Earth Day may come just once a year, the opportunity to make a difference is always in bloom. So, whether it's planting a tree, reducing waste, or advocating for change, let's celebrate Earth Day every day, in every action we take.

‘Avatar’ Guides Our Eyes Towards the Beauty of Life

Amid environmental devastation that is occurring in the form of rising temperatures, melting glaciers in the South Pole, animal endangerment, wildfires, and land and sea pollution, we can lift our eyes and see the broken beauty of life.

Both ‘Avatar’ and ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ have breathtaking visual imagery that displays how CGI and filmmaking have improved throughout the years between 2009 and 2022. The complexity of the different range of colors palettes and lighting of the film enhances the beauty of Pandora, the emotions of the characters, and the reality of the events whether it is good or bad. Every scene of the film is highly detailed, colors are realistic and resemble how light and color interact with each other in real life. The aspect of color and lighting engages with the rhetorical appeal of Pathos, or emotions, due to how the film uses these aspects to play with the emotions of the audience. Without putting importance on color and lighting, the film would be dull, not amusing the audience's emotions in a way where they would leave the theaters with a new perspective of the world. 

In an interview with director James Cameron and cinematographer Russel Carpenter hosted by ‘Vanity Fair’, Carpenter states that “The sun is a major element in both the visuals and the story of The Way of Water, particularly when the daily eclipse creates a dramatic nighttime showdown in the third act. Here, it’s a gentle backdrop for the Sully family as they fly to find a new home- but as with everything in an Avatar movie, it’s far more complex than it looks.” (Rich)

Russel Carpenter and his talents in cinematography are a vital force in illustrating the story of ‘Avatar: The Way of Water.’ Without proper technology and understanding of the aspects of virtual filmmaking, the movie wouldn’t succeed the way it did when it was released in theaters. The lighting has to be strategically understood; how does the blue Na’vi skin react with the lighting or surrounding colors? Where is light being emitted from? How do the fabric and clothing react? The color palette and the lighting go hand-in-hand when it comes to pushing the story to a subliminal level. The audience will focus more on the aspects of dialogue and plot of the story, while under those aspects, the colors and lighting will provide a foundation for the dialogue and plot to stand on. Think of it as layers that support the film to convey its message. 

In the third act of ‘Avatar: The Way of Water,’ the Metkayina clan along with the Sully family prepare to attack the RDA after the discovery of the dead mother Tulkan and her calf. Humans constantly seek things to make a profit, one of them being ‘Amrita’, an anti-aging liquid that is produced in the glands in the brain of the Tulkan, whale-like creatures of Pandora. The Amrita can only be reached by killing the Tulkan. One vile of it can cost up to $80 million on Earth. No longer are the humans seeking the valuable Unobtanium metal they desperately desired in the first film. The RDA and Quaritch use the dead mother Tulkan and her calf as a trap to get the attention of Jake Sully, who is a refugee in the Metkayina village protecting his family from humans. After the battle begins with the Metkayina, the Sully family, and Payakan, the Tulkan-spirit brother of Jake’s son Lo’ak, fighting the RDA in daylight, an eclipse occurs when the battle shifts from defeating the RDA to defeating Quaritch. The dramatic contrast of the colors makes the audience sense the seriousness of the upcoming conflict. The change of light to dark foreshadows the upsetting events that the Sully’s will face; the death of the eldest son, Neteyam. 

Neteyam’s death is heartbreaking to Neytiri, Jake’s wife. The colors and lighting portray the grief of Neytiri, influencing the audience to connect with her emotionally.

At Neteyam's Funeral, the colors present illustrate Neytiri's and the clans' emotions. A change of color and lighting can be seen when Jake and Neytiri transfer their memories to the “Spirit Tree” of Neteyam. The change from grief to joy and gratitude can be seen in the scene. According to the Na’vi, everything connects with spirituality. All living things have a soul which can be recycled into the consciousness of Ewya and be used back into living matter. All life energy is borrowed and must be returned one day. The native protects the life of all forms by what is known as “The Three Laws of Eywa.” Eywa gave these laws to the Na’vi to guide them from participating in any activity that may be destructive to the environment.

In different scenes, the characters can be seen enjoying the clear, nighttime skies and honoring and respecting the land around them. The colors enhance the beauty and the vibrance of life. The rainforest is diverse. The oceans are endless. Life is precious and our Earth can also share with Pandora in its respect towards the environment. Native tribes in the past and present on Earth are good stewards of the land around them. Nature is cared for and protected. Our world is beautiful. Our world can provide the resources each organism needs to live. 

Though our Earth is being industrialized massively, we can see past the skyscrapers, past the wildfires, past the melting glaciers, and look up and see how beautiful and marvelous our planet Earth is.
