Growing up under the rapid synchronized development of the internet and the climate crisis, impermanence has dictated our lives. As witnesses of industrialization’s indefinite expansion, we wonder how to root ourselves in a foundation that bears constant extraction, extinction, and exploitation. We ground ourselves in the cultivating of homes, in remembering what was and fostering what could be. What if we stick our hands in the soil? What if we shape the air? Blow the dust off of our fingertips? What if we let things get dirty?

Can the Earth afford our dream of living?
