We All Need It

  WON 4th PLACE! YEAH! THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME EVER ENTERING A CONTEST!!!!!  

This piece is for the Earth's Wonders of Water contest. 
As bright and cheerful as this piece is... the message here is grim. Water is a vital resource for all living things on this planet. Sadly with global warming (which is largely caused by 1st world countries) it's 3rd world countries like those in Africa that will suffer the worst. It also just happens that it's areas like these that have a lot of animals that we know and love. So not only should you conserve water in your area but try and cut down on things like carbon emissions too this World Water Day.

P.S. With this piece we can also celebrate the recent release of the IPCC's 5th report! WOOT! the downside. Everything that was predicted in the past is predicted again but worse. The future looks bleak.

Also sorry for the terrible quality of my scanner....the colours definitely got distorted and areas got sharpened or lost
