Clima Utopyas: future narratives against ecoanxiety.
Twenty-five short cli-fi pieces to provide utopyan visions of 2050.
“After the massive 2042 blackout, international diplomacy negotiated for long years an utopyan society to be implemented worldwide. January 1st, 2050 will be the starting day for a new era, where humankind will be put at the centre of every single act of the whole society”.
ecoFascism: leviathan or humankind lifejacket?
Thirty-five short stories based on 2050, where a totalitarian society rules the planet.
“Temperatures have risen over +2ºC. Global population has reached 9.8 billion. Pressure on natural systems is at its peak. A new global movement has arisen. ecoF, a totalitarian system has been enforced, based on the minimum climate footprint on every aspect of our society”.

2050 Stripes
2050 Stripes is a multi-layer initiative to call for an urgent action against climate change.
Clima Stripes by Ed Hawkins of University of Reading (UK) were an impressive tool to communicate climate change effects. They show the increase in global temperatures from the 1900s represented with one stripe per year.
We would like to contribute by prolonging the stripes to 2050, using the +2ºC scenario.
TIME TO ACTION IS NOW!

Her story explores the implications, both at the global scale and and on a deeply personal level, of our common dilemma and the possibilities that are open to us. Fairhaven envisions how a range of practical climate adaptation and mitigation solutions: land reclamation, carbon sequestration, rebuilding ocean fishing stocks, and even re-freezing the Arctic. Fairhaven opens in 2036 as Grace is days away from assuming office as the President of the newly-formed Ocean Independent State.
