Book One of the New Enlightenment
A realistic science fiction novel set in the not-so-far-away future.
The relentless effects of climate change have driven Earth to its breaking point: catastrophic storms, raging wildfires, mass extinctions, and an unstoppable wave of human migration. Governments are paralyzed, and corporations are blinded by profit, ignoring the collapse of the very society they depend on. As poverty, starvation, and global conflict spiral out of control, the world teeters on the edge of chaos.
But not everyone is ready to surrender.
Solar Umbrella is a gripping tale of survival and innovation, where a small group of visionaries, led by Parker Varia, refuse to accept defeat. With the clock ticking, they set out to design and build a revolutionary device that could reverse the ravages of climate change. Standing in their way are powerful corporate forces and the unforgiving march of time. Yet, amid the despair, Parker and his team dare to hope, believing that their actions could reignite the spark of optimism and change the course of humanity's future.

Touch: Awakening
The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience.

Some believe that the changing weather and the fracturing of their civilization were due to the population explosion caused by CO2 breathers, who do not breathe oxygen but instead breathe CO2.
