THE KLIMATE ESTATE

by Eleanor Riley

The date is 2030, it is not the yet the end for mankind but it can be seen from here. Climate protestors have driven the closure of the concrete factory and made way for a group of new-age-bohemian activists to claim it as their own ‘eco-state’ for collective thought, observation and discovery as they fight to survive on earth.

Roam the grounds formed in patterns of theta brain waves, to align the body with the free movement of the mind in a deep state of flow. Enter the manor house factory decorated with earthy rural embellishment so to exist sustainably but with ornament and discuss climate saving ideas whilst sipping vodka distilled from the methane of the free-roaming cows. Dance, debate and do not lose faith in combined human effort to find a solution, because if all else fails we leave this world in joyful, intoxicated serenity.
