The Water We Want 2024 - Drawings

The work represents a flowing river with its different identities and characteristics. It was created by superimposing the profiles of the students, colored in the shades of the river. For each profile, a sentence is reported, taken from Monika Vaicenavičienė's book "What is a river?". Some sentences have been chosen and transcribed in full. An aspect of the river for each child profile, united to form a single large watercourse, which embraces each of us in our uniqueness and our own way of expressing ourselves. Because EVERY RIVER IS all of this! Each sentence on the river refers to a key word, expressed inclusively also in CAA (Augmentative Alternative Communication) and Braille on labels glued under each profile.

Like the functioning of the heart, but connected to nature, it should be our conscience in caring for and saving drinking water. With a cyclical scheme, this machine receives rainwater, treats it and then uses it rationally for cultivation. Here the author uses bright and cheerful colors to emphasize the water cycle and its vital importance for life. Use the technique of acrylic painting on cardboard.

The student painted a beautiful earth with blue and green colors and depicted drought with the orange color. Where there’s water, there are fish, some are even jumping into the pond. Flowing water nourishes dry land. The drawing is telling us that we want water, we want a world without dry and arid land. Only water can nourish every inch of the dry land. Better earth, better life

In this picture there are three egrets playing in the lake. The lake is named Dongchang Lake. It is the biggest lake of north China. It is located in Liaocheng City of Shandong Province.Because it was polluted by the garbage and waste water,some wild waterfowl disappeared. But our government takes many efforts to protect the lake. Now the efforts do work. The water resources get better.In recent years more and more kinds of wild waterfowls appear in this lake, such as egrets,wild ducks, kingfishers. Through this work we want to appeal for everyone’s protection for fresh water and wild waterfowl in the world.

In this painting, animals and humans are competing for the last drop of water, which reminds us to save water. Otherwise, there is no source of life for all!

Through this work, I want to tell everyone that water is the source of life and the foundation ofour food. Among the total water resources on the earth, only 3% is fresh water that we can liveon. So let's protect the water together!

This painting presents the close connection between humans and fresh water as well as theurgency of protecting water resources. The painting is varied in color, with blue as dominance,symbolizing clear and pure fresh water.In this painting, center is the blue water, standing for fresh water lakes, rivers, and groundwateron the earth. Dense vegetation and energetic animals around it together create a harmonious ecosystem.

Our actions, of any kind, will impact the environment and our way of living, in time. It won’t be easy to dealwith the consequences and repair the harm done. We want to have a better water and only we can make thishappen!

The world that the children will inherit could be a world of disasters, a world where resources are exploited to the point of exhaustion, a world ruled by greed, but it could also be a place of cooperation, of respect for nature and life, a better and fairer place for all.

We travelled with the fresh water of the river, following it from the source to the mouth. Then, when it started to evaporate, we saw the clouds flying in the sky. In the form of rain, when it was time to return, the sound of water drops on the earth made us dance. Water is a universal good: it must be loved, preserved and protected. We boys and girls let ourselves be carried by the water and we want to continue our journey. But there is no life if there is war in the world so, in the water of a great river, let’s go sailing and with the colors of the rainbow the beautiful planet we try to save. It will be a blue and colorful message of peace that to humanity, happy and together, we want to give. Water in the past: you are the source life gave us. Water in the present: you quench every living being’s thirst. Water in the future: power of nature… you will remain a source of pure energy. Fresh water of hope: flow in abundance for us in the world. Clean water of PEACE: wash the Earth’s wounds and erase wars everywhere!

What would life be like for humans and entire planet without water?

I just wanted to tell people that we are losing our planet Earth because we are destroying it. We are going to lose bees, trees and water. This is what I was thinking about

One day, Mother Water remembered her children in the arid lands. Knowing that without water they were in danger of death, she opened wide the door of her heart and poured forth streams full of life. As the water spread over the land everything came back to life. Nature burst with colour and all earthly and aquatic beings were full of joy. They marvelled at the power of Mother Water and expressed their gratitude. Everything around is green, people were shouting for joy, the grass regained it's colour and the flowers regained their beauty

The draw shows a hand holding a glass of water in the center, highlighting the importance of water for it. Around the hand, first of all there are people taking a shower and playing in the water that was 100% pure. Then a person drinking water, showing that the water was already 50% unfit for use. Later, a person observed the water pollution. And finally, we have a cemetery that shows that it is not possible to exist without water. Therefore, the drawing portrays the process that is leadng the imminence of lack of water for humanity in the future

My drawing was inspired by my veins, how it guides the blood through my body the water and the vein that give us life to our world. Water is the vein of the earth

I drew this drawing because water is important for our life. There are some people who don't even have water to drink. If there is no rain there will be no life. So, we mustn't waste a lot of water if we want people to have enough water to drink in the future

My painting is a calligraphic painting representing two different faces, a happy face and a sad face of a world that preserves water and takes care of nature and the sad face is a city which has not taken care of water and which does not know how to find water. That's why it suffers from a terrible water shortage we have to take care of water in the manner of happy face

The earth is the most important thing in our life, some have to protect it. There are different ways to do that. My illustration talks about the earth and the water, we have to protect them and don't waste the water

Our home is dying... on the surface, it may seem like everything is fine, but the Earth's freshwater resources are being destroyed by humans. Every day, tons of waste contaminate our water reserves and polluting gases are emitted. Therefore, with this collage, we intend to raise awareness of the issue of water resource pollution and the impact it has on our planet before it is too late.

Water is essential for both humanity and biodiversity. Despite their extreme importance, water resources have suffered degradation processes and almost half of the areas covered by fresh water are compromised. The graphic elements of this design show the results of inappropriate use by the human population and the impacts caused by industrialization. This drawing aims to raise awareness for the conservation of this resource, it’s for young people who live in places where water is scarce, and also for those who live with some abundance but who deliberate waste it.

Water water everywhere, not a drop to drink”..Water, so purposefully depicted in the above lines of the poem, is probably the most precious thing in the world. The earth is the only planet to have water on it. Water plays the main role behind life as it is the main constituent of any cell, whether it is plant or animal. The earth is covered with 70% of water but only 1% of it is sweet water, i.e. the water is fit for drinking. Common sources of sweet water are glaciers, rivers, streams, lakes, ponds and rainwater. Actually, the earth’s content of sweet water gets refilled through the water cycle. Deforestation, pollution and global warming are causing the content of sweet water on the earth’s surface to decrease day by day. But without it there would have been no life because the relation between humans and the earth is indescribable as one depends on the life of the other for the survival of itself. So, through this painting, I, Aheli Banerjee, want to convey to the society to maintain the ecological balance in both urban and rural areas for not only the survival of us, but also for the earth.

Navigating Water Scarcity, Climate Change and Biodiversity Loss. Because of unethical deforestation, emission of greenhouse gases from factories and fossil fuel-driven vehicles causing global warming that put the human race towards extinction from a dire shortage of drinking water. The use of plastics has made things worse because of the fatal effects on marine life. It's time, if not late, we should plant more trees to have rain immediately. Otherwise, we have to be prepared to see taps running dry. Education to build a more sustainable and resilient future for both people and the planet.

Until the mid 20th century the city of Doha was almost entirely reliant on water drawn from numerous shallow wells. The population of Qatar relied on wells from which freshwater was extracted, which catered to all of their water needs. Similar to other arid and desert countries, Qatar's environment is characterized by a lack of renewable freshwater resources such as rivers and lakes. A water well is an excavation or structure created in the ground by digging, driving, boring or drilling to access groundwater in underground aquifers. Over time, the quality of the groundwater has been deteriorating, because as the fresh water is taken out, the seawater is pulled in from underground to fill the gap. So how can groundwater in Qatar be sustainably managed? Kahramaa is actively rehabilitating and activating over 300 existing recharge wells around Qatar, to increase the direct recharge to the aquifer system in the country from the rain and subsequently improve the groundwater condition and increase its availability for water security, while at the same time extending efforts to drill and develop about 60 recharge/injection and observation wells to increase the direct recharge to storage zone and to increase the productivity of the aquifer system from the rain

With the development of industry, the rampant destruction of the environment by human production and life, and our waste of water resources, the freshwater resources available for our use are becoming increasingly scarce! For the reproduction of human society, we must protect our enduring freshwater resources and not let our tears of regret become the last water!

See grandmother was seedlings in the field, this scene is picturesque

In my drawing I represented the way the water saves our world. If we don't have water, both te world and the nature will suffer. The work represents a warning so save the planet by cleaning the water!

This drawing depicts two parallel worlds: in one world people are wasting water, while in the other one people have no water at all

In this work Captain Water is represented giving the message of care and saving our precious liquid. And so, when children see this great superhero, they identify with him and it motivates them to take care of water more diligently

Freshwater is one of the most precious resources on our planet. It represents only 2.5% of the total water on Earth, but it is essential for the survival of all forms of life. Freshwater is at the base of every terrestrial ecosystem, from small mountain streams to large rivers that flow into the oceans. It is indispensable for agriculture, industry, and daily domestic use. However, freshwater is a limited resource and is increasingly under pressure due to climate change and overuse. Its importance cannot be underestimated. We must commit to conserving and sustainably managing this vital resource, to ensure a sustainable future for all living beings on Earth. Always remember, every drop counts.
