Collection: Red Catalogue Number Two: The Environment

"What this fascinating catalogue shows is just how slow society has been to wake up to these issues. Climate change, global warming and other environmental issues may only have gained common currency in recent decades, but the issues were often identified centuries ago. In our enthusiasm to get the world to wake up to these issues we may not always get the messaging right, but we would be wrong to ignore the siren warnings from the scientists and writers represented in this selection.”
