The image depicts a girl in water, metaphorically representing nature that is portrayed as a cold and an uninviting place.

On the website they use the example of over-fishing that causes some species of fish to be endangered or extinct; in order to go in depth about the consequences, results and how overexploitation occurs. The images and tables used on the website are effective models of scientific and  educational communication.

Rather than using imported iron oxide from China to make his paint colors, he taps into the water’s heavy metals left over from abandoned coal mines, bringing to light the region’s pollution problem in the process"
