Responding to Visual Arguments

The visual created by Surfrider. Org shows that saving energy will save lives and that people should focus on alternative sources of energy that are environmentally friendly, renewable, and harness natural processes such as solar energy, geothermal, waves, and wind energy. The goal of the organization seems to embrace the Eco lifestyle through the expansion of green and alternative energy sources such as the usage of solar panels and wind turbines. The organization has focused on creating public awareness through alternative energy campaigns.

The visuals make a powerful statement about ideas of renewable energy and environmentally friendly sources of energy. There is a need to rely on alternative sources of energy to save the plant through living a sustainable eco-lifestyle. The central image shows the protection of the planet through living a sustainable eco-lifestyle. Other visual elements enhance the central image by showing the different sources of energy that can be utilized to take proactive approaches to conservation. The visuals include words as well as images that have been used to communicate the different ways through which people can conserve energy to save land and water on which life depends.

These words suggest that there is a need to save energy and rely on alternative sources of energy to save the planet. The visuals are effective since they enhance and communicate the appropriate message as well as generate interest, attention, and impact from the audience. They have consistently worked together with the images to communicate a central message on energy conservation to facilitate an eco-lifestyle.
