Elegy for a Vanishing World (in Progress)

Climate change an existential threat to our existence on earth. It is a still unfolding tragedy that brings with it staggering loss. Our response has been muted. We remain sharply divided, captives to the distorted lens of anger, blame and division. We cannot hear each other and thus, we cannot act. In this series, I invite people to reflect on climate change through the lens of personal and collective memory and loss. This series is a meditation and a lament. The world is speaking to us. Are we prepared to listen?
