    This is a book about the wonderful creatures on our planet. I will be going over their environments, their treatment in zoos, what status they are on the IUCN redlist. I will go over UK legislation (possibly) and their needs and things. I am very opinionated with this, I grew up around animals and I'm disgusted with how the world is prioritizing us over the animals that have no control over what we do. I am also studying an animal based-course so I will do my best to use some scientific wording (and will explain the meaning of it). Because of my education and wanting to go to Uni, I may be a little on and off with posting but, I will be doing my best. Do whatever you can to help others, no matter how small <3 note: None of the images, videos or the cover is mine. Credits to the amazing people who produced them XX

    Poetry Collection // Upon the Stars We See is a deeply personal and politically charged chapbook that weaves together haiku, prose poems, and spoken word to explore the intersections of Indigenous identity, environmental grief, and the quiet violence of modern existence. Through minimalism and lyrical force, it constructs a celestial mirror-reflecting not only the realities of colonization and capitalism, but also the resilience, memory, and inherited strength of those who live through them.

    The Earth is dying, yet humanity survives. Pollution and radiation run rampant on the surface. The government rations food and clean air for everyone. The glass domes provide some sense of security, but they are only for the rich who can afford the astronomical price of providing precious clean air to a whole city. Nym and her family live outside the dome when the disease breaks out. Spreading through the Minor City Shelter and then to Shelter's around other cities, nothing seems capable of stopping it. People are going mad and dying off like flies. There's no cure they can find. They only know one thing. Their last precious resource is going to be the death of them.

    L'humanité a une facilité étonnante a détruire sa terre, c'est inscrit dans sont identité, la curiosité, la vanité, le désirs lui force la main, et l'accompagne dans sa conquête de la destruction de notre monde. L'explotation de la terre ne date pas d'hier : l'âge de pierre ,puis celle du fer, puis vain l'age du numérique et de l'exploitation du pétrole pour sont besoin : voitures, portables, vêtements, emballage plastique, téléphone... Et cela pendant des centaines d'années, réalisant par la même occasion l'exploit de la création d'un nouveau continent de plastique, la destruction d'eco-système millinaire et l'extinction d'espèce animal . Oui, Bienvenue dans notre air ! L'air de la consommation ! Nous en avons bien profité, fermant les yeux sur l'inévitable. Mais aujourd'hui, après avoir creusé encore et encore vers le cœur de notre terre, sans se soucier des conséquences, le monde anéantie de ses ressources, s'effondra sur lui-même. Provoquant alors des crevasses de centaines de milliers de mètres nommées "les catacombes de la terre". Ces crevasses s'étendirent en forme d'anneau sur la totalité de sa surface, qui eu pour conséquence d'augmenter la chaleur de l'atmosphère de plusieurs degrés. Ce moment signa la fin de notre existante ,les éléments s'enchaînèrent par la suite, toutes les espèces disparurent les unes après les autres, la chaîne alimentaire se rompit ; la moitié des glaciers commencèrent à dériver puis fondirent, submergeant la terre d'eau, faisant disparaître Los Angeles , San Francisco, New York, ou encore les pauvres îles reculer. Les hommes, s'approchant de l'extinction de la vie sur notre planète , construirent l'inimaginable : un vaisseau pour la mission ultime, celle de la survie de l'espèce humaine. Mais le nouveau monde qui est sur le point d'accueillir l'humanité n'est pas une planète sans vie

    Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending.

    Story published by Amazon, available in English and Spanish in the United States, Canada, England, Australia and in Latin America and the Caribbean. It's incomplete on Wattpad, but all the chapters are in the paid version. Are you ready to learn some of the climate reality that impacts us directly or indirectly? In this book, you will find some guidelines to help you get involved in the task of decontaminating the planet in different ways. There is not one single person who cannot escape climate change, and at some point in their lives, they will have to face the significant decision of whether to go to a public shelter or stay home while the predicted meteorological event passes. The reality of the deteriorating planetary health shows that humanity faces extreme weather events every day, which destroy homes, apartments, and commercial premises, such as category three, four, and five super-hurricanes and mega-forest fires. Although they are natural and have always existed throughout the planet's history, they become more frequent and intense due to atmospheric pollution and visit us year after year. Sometimes, they can affect our personal assets since they deplete our personal finances, forcing us to invest money to protect ourselves when these meteorological events occur.

    I watched in horror as she slowly melted down into the sea and the water began to evaporate, revealing the sea bed underneath- Mountains and mountains of plastic straws, bags and bottles. And since that day that I have walked away, I have told everybody which I have seen: Do not do something that you might regret one day.

    Written for National Geographic's #PlanetOrPlastic campaign. This story is purely fictional (except that "Tethys" really was the name of an Mesozoic ocean that separated two supercontinents in that era). Graphic warning, this is not a happy story.
