Depicts an outdoor scene depicting the landscape changes caused by humans and technological processes. Beginning on the left, there is landscape with trees, a bee, a flower, a small hut, and three women utilizing the water from the river beneath a blue sky. The next section begins with chopped logs and a train billowing smoke into the air. The fields are yellow, the sky is gray, and factories releasing fumes line the background. The yellow field changes to purple and the sky fades back to blue. Two women and one man gather from the green landscape and plants. The last section depicts wildlife living on the water. There is a turtle, frog, bee, and various types of plants. The sky turns from blue to yellow to orange to pink to purple with a moon. A section of the mural names the groups involved in creating the mural surrounded by leaf prints.
