For fans of The Hunger Games

For fans of The Hunger Games: Suzanne Collins is a modern-day St John of Patmos, illustrating her vision of the aftermath of the coming devastation due to Climate Change. Don’t believe me? From page 18, “Just as the town clock strikes two, the mayor steps up to the podium and begins to read. It’s the same story every year. He tells the history of Panem, the country that rose up out of the ashes of a place that was once called North America. He lists the disasters, the droughts, the storms, the fires, the encroaching seas that swallowed up so much of the land, the brutal war for what little sustenance remained.” This is a clear description of the mechanism of climate change ending in our worst fears.
