This photo was taken when the hot weather in Surabaya in transition conditions. at that time I was in campus, I saw the condition of plants that grow in poor soils due to the unusual hot weather. I use twigs are nearby as explanatory that the surrounding conditions were dry and cracked soil as well as the supporting element. besides, I use water droplets to indicate that at least the water received the plant. I also gave a sprinkling of dried leaves in the background as the effect of aridity.
Current world climate that is increasingly hot because one of the reason it happen is a result of the diminished number of trees absorbing and protecting from the light and heat of the sun. As the result, people are now easily exposed to direct ultraviolet rays from the sun that can cause skin to dry up its worst effects, namely skin cancer. Besides, due to the weather gets hot, the plants begin to dry up, wither, and the land becomes barren due to global warming.
This photography is trying to make us aware that the condition of our earth is getting hotter due to global warming. So, we should help each other in an effort to reduce the effects of global warming which is a way to restore the core components that can counteract the global warming that is by planting trees.
