Thanks for this Mark and @nichecanada.bsky.social! I’m especially pleased that this like so many other reviews notes that Indigenous history is integrated into the overall text.

"What does it looks like when environmental disaster leads to societies that are, perhaps, more just and certainly more equal than what came before?" - @jamiemurton.bsky.social niche-canada.org/2020/02/11/h... #envhist #envhum #scifi #dystopia

Hope in Dystopia
Environmental disaster dystopias can inspire optimistic, equal societies that manage resources through memory, ritual, and a commitment to justice.

We are reaching the end of our @nichecanada.bsky.social fundraising campaign & we are still 31% away from our goal. I owe a great deal to this group, & I also put SO MUCH labour into this community. More than ever, environmental knowledge needs to be protected & supported. fnd.us/niche2025?re...

Why Canada isn't having the same bird flu/egg price crisis as US: Avg size of Canada's egg farms ~ 23,000 hens Avg size of American egg farms ~ 50,000 to 6 million hens Canadian supply management = more livelihoods, keeps prices stable, and is safer. www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/pe...
