foodchain Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Short stories for environmental science? You see sci-fi for various scientific thoughts or ideas. Anything of course from time travel to even cybernetic things and beyond. Yet for the simple concept of some post nuclear war type scenario sci-fi based on environmentalism really does not exist. I think the definition of such and science overall have properties far to similar to dissociate and of course giving ecology for example or environmental chemistry for another the environment surely exists as far as people are could empirically concern. Now I have a few neat ideas on short stories and just wanted to bounce them around. One is in which people master quantum entanglement to an extent to control say physical environments. In which you find in the case of the story human behavior causing say self extinction or widespread damage, that such was possible even in such a society that could do something like I suggest. Another is a more human tragedy based one. What would life really be like if say global warming does bring serious and lasting change. I think you could combine modern themes into such also with say genetics and a population that grows in size and age. The relevance of any of these stories I guess would only come to bear if you could incorporate the scientific history of environmentalism or ecology into the stories. This becomes important as the environment itself as evidenced from human interaction with it on any issue is an issue that causes such simply by magnitude. Its of direct consequence on such a large scale that basically the ability to communicate on the issue becomes vastly complex. Explaining a graph to someone about CO2 I don’t really thinks to suffice for say oceans of understanding that could be missing that even allows the graph to have any functionality.
