Coming of Age at the End of Nature explores a new kind of
environmental writing. This powerful anthology gathers the
passionate voices of young writers who have grown up in an
environmentally damaged and compromised world. Each contributor has
come of age since Bill McKibben foretold the doom of humanity's
ancient relationship with a pristine earth in his prescient 1988
warning of climate change, The End of Nature. What happens to
individuals and societies when their most fundamental cultural,
historical, and ecological bonds weaken--or snap? In Coming of Age
at the End of Nature, insightful millennials express their anger
and love, dreams and fears, and sources of resilience for living
and thriving on our shifting planet. Twenty-two essays explore
wide-ranging themes that are paramount to young generations but
that resonate with everyone, including redefining materialism and
environmental justice, assessing the risk and promise of
technology, and celebrating place anywhere from a wild Atlantic
island to the Arizona desert, to Baltimore and Bangkok. The
contributors speak with authority on problems facing us all,
whether railing against the errors of past generations, reveling in
their own adaptability, or insisting on a collective responsibility
to do better.
