Caption: The main theme of this drawing is to show the thread of unfair trade and its undesirable outcome. The dirty hand and the pair of aggressive eyes represent selfish and capital-centred people who care only about making money. While the puddle of water, which is being squeezed drop by drop from the earth, metaphor as the wonderful things that Mother Nature created for us. The dried land and the dead fish act as a contrast to the virtual image on the puddle of water. On the whole, this drawing symbolize the greed of human “squeezing” the great things of the nature ruthlessly, regardless of the others and the future generations.

Caption: Fairness, workers’ incentives and international relationship, which are essential factors in maintaining a harmonious trading environment, are drawn in the design. Fairness is represented by the scale. The wheels, gear wheels and computers show technology, while the national flags show international cooperation. International friendship is gained through fair trade, people can enjoy a large variety of goods, no matter they are in more developed countries or less developed countries. Thus, raising the living standard, people live happily. When having trade, environmental problems should also be taken consideration, cargos and ships are encouraged to be used, too.
