This is my entry for the #PlanetorPlastic writing contest by National Geographic and Wattpad.
The 'hope souls' were the ones who did not believe in those who said the planet was never going to become better.
Phrases like "There is nothing you can do" did not affect them.

Runaway World
During the final decades of the twenty first century, a rogue brown dwarf star passed through the solar system and its gravity threw the Earth out of orbit around the sun. Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race.

The Journey... (A true Story)
"I can't do this anymore; I just can't!" A line said in almost every individual's life. We all at one stage in our life dealt with such pain; where dying is easier then living. But, it's all a rollarcoaster that we have to fight through. I was once a shy, scared and sad little girl and now I'm a confident, compassionate and cheerful young lady. But, I wasn't always like this; at many stages I was extremely depressed. I know this seems like the stereotypical teenager's story but it was something much much more. Give my story a read and lets ride the rollarcoaster together. You never truly know what can impact you the most. It could be a book or even another person. Never close yourself off to be alone because you're shutting yourself from the beautiful world we live in together. Expect the unexpected and always reach for the stars. I hope you guys ride along and we can over come any scenario together as one.Complete

The Oracle Trilogy Book One Ohm's Node
It's 2035. After worldwide walks of tears and protests of the scientific community joined by artists, and millions of people who demanded oil companies and other carbon emitters stop, a consortium of the world's wealthiest, tech and Heads of State is convened, setting down a Hail Mary manifesto with an 'everything on the table' epic approach to reestablishing a habitable planet by 2200. And because they're throwing everything at it, in hopes that something sticks, something does, one of those unexpected things that changes everything. Or to quote Bob Dylan~ Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected?
