Cartoon showing a construction crew building a road and bridge. The bridge is made up of (nuclear) missiles, smoking chimney stacks and sewer pipes, interspersed with army tanks and leaking barrels of oil and toxic waste. A sign at the beginning of the bridge under construction reads ‘Building the road to self-extinction. Ready 20234.’ Across the chasm over which the bridge is being built we see the Grim Reaper waiting.

Cartoon showing a zoo. In the zoo is a glass cage with various animals. Around the zoo is a fence and a sign that reads 'Last area on earth without plastic pollution'. Outside the fence, we see hills of plastic trash. A booth is selling tickets to people wanting to enter the zoo. Inside the zoo, the ground is also littered with plastic trash (except for the inside of the glass cage). A stand with a giant plastic bottle on the roof is selling snacks and drinks to the people.
