It's It's Not the World That's Fragile

'It's not the World that's fragile - it's us' is a collection of eco-centric poems that consider our position in the world, our attitudes and behaviours to one another and our impact (sometimes unintentional, unforeseen, or both) on the environment on which we ultimately depend.




Not all is doom and gloom but it seems increasingly clear that we have precipitated and are still precipitating a set of conditions that are taking us towards a tipping point.

The poems in this collection explore how we got to this point, the choices we now have and the kind of unintended outcomes that inaction could lead to.




The text provides no easy answers, there are none, but rather raises issues and poses questions whose answers need to be sought collaboratively - and soon. It's not the World that's fragile - it's us.
