Sustainable life defines a lifestyle that includes the efficient, careful, fair, and responsible use of the natural resources of the planet while meeting the vital, economic, and social needs of individuals and communities. Correct use of natural resources, environmentally friendly nutrition and food systems, use of environmentally sensitive technology, renewable energy use, a healthy environment, equal distribution of resources means as the synchronous providing of economic welfare and social justice. The inclusion of sustainability in lifestyle means that the choices of individuals regarding food, product and energy use both today and tomorrow and being aware of the impact that future generations have on their lives. Within the scope of sustainable lifestyles to slow down global warming by reducing carbon footprint: reach to healthy food, reducing food waste, supporting local producers, the hunger-obesity paradox, environmentally friendly transportation, recycling, being a producer without a consumer, use of second-hand items, reducing plastic waste, use of environmentally friendly products, conserving biodiversity, reduce ocean-sea pollution and protecting sea creatures, planting a tree, respect for all creatures in nature, rights advocacy of disadvantaged groups, equality in income distribution, in support of art and artist works which include may apply.

In the works, critical, awareness-raising expressions that emphasize the causes and consequences of the global climate crisis, emphasize respect for the living rights of other creatures in nature should be taken into account.

Why an exhibition instead of competition?

Sustainability is a concept that includes solidarity, not competition. This time, we will embrace our planet, which is on the point of extinction, with solidarity and create awareness with our drawings.

To create awareness, we believe that cartoon is one of the best mediums.
