Description

Dew covered White Wood Aster blooms stretch in the early morning light. (Aster divaricatus) Corrupted data of decayed files obscure the moment kept. Even digital records fall to the ravages of time. The devastation of climate related weather events is becoming ever more frequent. The loss of human life, species, natural spaces and historical documents to these events - the loss of information, biological data corrupted or lost - never to be recovered and reshapes the reality, alters the patterns. What we can no longer see, what we can no longer learn, what we can no longer know. Lost to time from acts of negligence and greed. Lost to power imbalance, futile grasps at control. Attempts at eternity, at immortality are in vain. All will decay, atrophy, disintegrate and dissolve. Pakistan has endured the most devastating climate event in recent history. Mass floods, death, displacement have stunned the country. A third of the country is under water - famine, waterborne disease and disability are all that blooms. Pakistan has a tiny impact on the global carbon emissions, yet faces the most devastating effects. Environmental and disaster mitigation efforts need to be intersectional, lest we repeat the same patterns that brought us to this point in the first place.
