Support the Environment
According to some scientific research, Mediterranean is going to rise around five feet by the end of this century meaning that popular tourist destination and historic city of Venice could almost entirely disappear.
Artist Lorenzo Quinn made a huge impact to spread this message by creating this amazing sculpture and exhibiting it in the center of the Venice Grand Canal.
The sculpture is named Support and depicts two hands rising from the canal and supporting the building of the Ca’ Sagredo Hotel.
A dual representation of human nature and its power to either preserve the environment by holding this old building in place or totally drag it down by continuing to degrade our ecosystems.

Very dramatic and powerful painting!!
If Venice’s going to be under five feet of water, then Bangkok would also be under water! A Buddhist monk saw Bangkok under five meters of flood water in the future. My friend told me that this monk saw some natural disaster happening in the world in his meditation!
So some people are thinking of how to prepare for such terrible disaster!
Личи то и на дављеника који покушава да се за нешто ухвати и извуче из воде, @landarch.milica. Хвала за фотографију и објашњење.
Majority of the people are not concerned about environmental issues, and that is all causing disasters like this! But we still have a chance to win the battle if we try our best to educate and spread awareness about environmental footprint!
Hvala puno na komentaru :) Da, imaš pravo, liči na nekog davljenika koji očajnički želi spas.
