Brand new fleet of Amazon Prime delivery step vans in National City, California. These still have temporary paper tags on the back.
I visited the Amazon office London as I am doing some consultancy work for a company. I loved this statue at the front entrance and the person shows the relative size of the artwork. The statue is called In Anticipation by James Burke. It is inspired by the limitless possibilities of our next thought, move and action.

Subject to availability. The Amazon rainforest, or at least what's left of it, generates a large part of the oxygen that you breathe. A few decades back, these photos would've been dark green.
Nur solange Vorrat reicht. Der Regenwald im Amazonasbecken, oder zumindest das, was davon übrig ist, erzeugt ein Großteil des Sauerstoffes, den wir alle atmen. Vor ein paar Jahrzehnten wären diese Fotos noch dunkelgrün gewesen.

Along the Amazon River, I became lucky enough to visit the small community called Santa Maria Fatima several times. Each time, after the first time I have been welcomed like a long time friend. Each time these people filled my heart. During the rainy season, the Amazon overflows right into their little village and the kids (my favorites) make the absolute best of it. This pic is an example

The third installment in mine and Bartu's Amazon collaboration: Destruction.
There are many threats to the Amazon forest, one of them being small illegal gold mines that both destroys and poisons the forest by ruining the soil and dumping mercury waste. This build portrays such a mine.
This is a more somber theme than the previous two, as is the intention. Colors are more muted, with more olive and dark green. The dark tan ground is mostly exposed with vegetation struggling.
The whole setup is very makeshift and temporary, and nothing here is made to last. People are here to get what they can and then move on, giving no care to what state they leave things in. I tried to portray this by making things rather messy and cluttered.
One of the things I was pondering for a while was the inclusion of minifigs in the build. I've had many interesting conversations on whether it would be wise to include them or not. It was important for the build that the issues were not trivialized by making it childish or less natural. With a medium that is often seen as a toy this can sometimes be tricky. For this purpose I went with flesh heads rather than yellow ones, and made sure to avoid any polarizing facial expressions, like the standard "bad guy" faces.
Though certainly not innocent, the workers are not the main culprits in this, but rather other people who are far away from what is actually happening, bear the biggest blame. Often these people who are the main cause of this are not even found in South America, but may reside in Europe, Asia or North America, and this was something that was unfortunately not possible to portray in this build.
When it comes to Lego techniques, much of the focus here was on the man-made parts, which I don't build that often. The nature is not really something new, but I do like the staggered wedge plates technique for a varied incline.
On his side, Bartu created some fantastic sounds, made by on his violin, mimicking the sounds of ongoing destruction of the forest.
Hope you like the build, and that you feel this issue has been properly portrayed.
The sloop AMAZON, with Cdr J E Hunter, was on her way from Spithead to Halifax, Nova Scotia. She was a new vessel just commissioned and was constructed of wood. Early on the morning of Tuesday, July 10th, 1866, the sloop was off Portland when she ran into the s.s. Osprey, Capt. Burtridge, of the Cork Steam Navigation Co., cutting her in two and causing her to sink in a few minutes with the loss of ten lives. The AMAZON sustained vital damage and her crew, after picking up 22 survivors from the Osprey, were ordered to take to the boats. Fortunately there was sufficient room for all on board and there were no casualties among the sloop´s complement. A court-martial was held on board H.M.S. Victory at Portsmouth under presidency of Rear Admiral George C. Wellesley, C.B. Evidence was placed befo re the Court to the effect that the sloop was under command of Sub. Lt. Alfred C. Loveridge at the time of the collision which took place about 1 a.m., the AMAZON striking the Osprey on the port quarter about one third of her length from the stern. The navigation lights on both vessels were burning brightly and the night was clear and calm. The steamship, which was under command of the first mate, sank within five minutes and the AMAZON sank at about 3.30 a.m., just as the weather was beginning to thicken. Sub. Lt. Loveridge was dismissed from the service, but recommended to the favorable consideration of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty "... on account of the high character given him for zeal in the
