Lin also tried to raise people's awareness to environmental issues. "Because of water pollution, some fish become ill, their bones have changed color, some even changed shape," Lin said he has witnessed the change taken place in the sea creatures in the last two decades. He said that such changes have made him more determined to carry on his mission of creating fish bone paintings.

Several of his works, including "Thirst", "The Other Shore" and "Birds Flown with the tree" are all works that reflect environmental problems.

Lin said that as an artist, he has no say in politics, and he cannot change a social problem anlone, but he hopes that his paintings could make viewers realized how severe the pollution problems is, and call for people to care for the environment.
