1. Noah’s ark photo

There was an eye-catching picketing at the Bula Zone on Saturday, 11th November. The big picket

shows a Noah’s ark in the bible. A strap below a huge picket has been decorated by ropes. When a person hold the strap, thus, it seems people suspending from the ark. If you see the ark, it says “Paris Agreement” on its body. On the top of the signboard, there are sayings of “Stick to it” and “There”. Particularly, these messages are targeting the countries which withdrew Paris Agreement. Since all the countries are on a same boat called the earth, this picket strongly asserts that we have to overcome today’s environment crisis all together.

 

2. Thermometer showing the earth’s time in crisis A huge thermometer stands alone in the middle of COP event venue on Saturday, 11th November. It warns people by showing the temperature of the earth. This thermometer tells temperature of the earth with a huge thermometer model on the ground. This thermometer indicates how hot the earth is on the left side and what crisis-time the earth is now on the right side. It is over 9 pm which means the mother

earth is in crisis level. This thermometer was a memorable design to alert people’s attention.
