PREFACE The environment is not something I looked too much into growing up; however, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve become more conscious of it. My generation and the generations to come will bear the burden of the mistreatment of the environment by previous generations. Water is one part of the environment that is not being properly conserved, and more attention needs to be brought to it. This catalog is a way to bring awareness to our water problems and what our future could look like through the use of environment concept art.

Paige Chu of The Varsity, the University of Toronto’s student newspaper, provides a compelling viewpoint in her insightful essay about eco-anxiety. The climate crisis we are facing calls for more of an intersectional approach with the burden steadily falling on the younger generations.

Confronting the rise of eco-anxiety “Who am I in the context of climate crisis?”

In 1896, Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius first introduced the world to the possibility of global warming.

His research focused on the widespread effects of coal burning. However, his research was oversimplistic.

People couldn’t imagine a future of mass extinction and forest fires, so his findings did not lead to widespread fear.

In 1956, a news report on long-term environmental changes from greenhouse gas emissions appeared in The New York Times. However, the article noted that as there was little risk of running out of fossil fuels, industries would likely continue consuming them.

As long as it paid to consume coal and oil, and those resources were cheap and plentiful, then such practices would soldier on to generate profits. And so they did.

Now, half a century later, elementary school children are seeking psychiatric care to cope with debilitating panic and anxiety over the environmental crisis. A study conducted by Caroline Hickman at the University of Bath showed that 45 percent of children suffer from depression after a natural disaster.

‘Eco-anxiety’ is a recently-coined term that encapsulates the rising emotional and psychological responses to the climate crisis. From 2008–2009, the American Psychological Association put together a task force that investigated the relationship between the climate crisis and human psychology. The results for this study revealed that people remained more or less blasé about the climate crisis.

In 2018, however, a Yale University and George Mason University study group reported that 29 percent of

10

Americans were “alarmed” about the climate, up 11 percent from 2009. The denial that was prevalent just a decade ago is dissolving, and in some cases is being replaced by paralyzing fear.

The necessity for an intersectional approach While eco-anxiety has only garnered attention in recent years, people are no strangers to our psychological states being under environmental influence. Dr. Romila Verma of U of T’s Department of Geography and Planning gave three possible reasons why the global population has seen a sharp increase in climate change-specific mental health issues.

As the climate crisis persists, environmental destruction becomes more visible and more serious, as Verma wrote to The Varsity. We’re told that if we haven’t suffered an extreme climate event yet, we will, and in the meantime, we’re being “bombarded” day-in and day-out with news of devastation occurring elsewhere.

Verma also mentioned social media being a contributing factor to anxiety in general, be it climate-specific or otherwise. “Before the advent of social media,” she wrote, “[a crisis] was not as visible unless you were directly hit by these issues.”

According to a press release from the United Nations in March, there are only “11 Years Left to Prevent Irreversible Damage from Climate Change.” Verma believes that this has increased anxiety among young people especially. This timeline tabled an ultimatum that children are forced to confront. Much of the action and campaigning since then was born of this responsibili-

ty, a burden that children know they inherited as the byproduct of centuries of reckless economic dreams.

While mainstream media tells us that eco-anxiety is a new, emerging dimension of the climate crisis, we would be ignorant to assume that this concern really is brand new for all populations. We would be just as mistaken to consider eco-anxiety an equal-impact phenomenon. Like many other crises, the climate crisis and eco-anxiety run along intersectional race, class, and gender lines.

For Indigenous communities, a loss of land and disrespect for the sacredness of the non-human is not a recent occurrence, but rather part of a centuries-long history. Furthermore, for individuals with disabilities, well-intentioned but under-researched practices, such as the plastic straw ban, come at the expense of accessibility. Exposure to natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes has also been shown to increase the risk of gender-based violence, as it exacerbates the already vulnerable position of women.

There have been strides made in understanding the impacts of climate crisis. In recent decades, there has been recognition that gender is an important factor in the realm of developmental policy. In the 1970s, the concept of environmental refugees emerged, with particular regard to the desertification occurring in parts of Africa. These intersectional factors must influence the theory and methods of addressing the climate crisis.

“There are many instances of environmental injustices which are in direct violation of [the] human rights of indigenous, disabled, minorities, immigrants, refugees,

homeless people,” wrote Verma, and not all have the 11 years to wait. “The vulnerable populations around the world are already being denied basic needs like food, water, and shelter.”

The harrowing reality is that regardless of a universal trend of growing urgency, we as a society still invest in climate protection for privileged populations at the expense of the already disadvantaged. Furthermore, we still believe that the limitation of harmful corporate activities for the safety of the marginalized is transgressive. (...)

The ones bearing the brunt of it: children In an interview with Reuters, Hickman remarked that the current state of our climate leaves today’s youth with feelings of betrayal and abandonment. She further emphasized that “fear from children needs to be taken seriously by adults.”

Leaving these issues unaddressed could further compound their fears.

Children are a particularly vulnerable age group, not only because the climate crisis weighs disproportionately heavy on their futures, but also because post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following catastrophes, depression, aggression, and social withdrawal are more common for them, and their symptoms tend to be more long-term when compared to adults.

Verma pointed out that many young people have not hesitated to be at the forefront of movements like

Fridays for Future, which was pioneered by 16-year-old Greta Thunberg and picked up later by equally-impassioned students such as Wiikwemkoong First Nation water protector Autumn Peltier and U of T’s own Allie Rougeot.

“There is no right or wrong age to be a changemaker,” Verma wrote. “Since young people are the future adults, and they will face more severe consequences of climate change, they should become part of the solution.”

Verma explained that in her personal experiences advocating for climate justice, she sees today’s youth as key voices in forcing those in power to implement and innovate accordingly. She also said that there are the mental health challenges that come with such a large undertaking. She believes that in order to adequately care for child activists it is important to examine our broken mental health systems.

“There are incidents of these activists being bullied, harassed and made fun of,” wrote Verma. “In the face of adversity, it takes a lot of courage and resiliency to withstand this onslaught.”

“Climate change impacts are felt in every section of society however, the main burden of its consequences falls on marginalized and vulnerable populations,” wrote Verma.

As students and faculty of this institution, we each come from one form of privilege or another. Our identities are not without the protections offered by our race, gender, class, or other identity groups. For most of us, it is important to understand our anxieties and our positions in relation to those who have been disadvantaged for much longer than media and history has allowed us to realize.

For students like ourselves, our futures hang over a precipice. What is our role in this fight? What are the decisions that we’re obligated to make? In the face of mass extinctions, food strikes, and forced migration, family-building has become an unethical dream. The uncertainties linger like smog in the air.

We have to look at both ourselves and each other and ask: what do we owe to our own futures in order to create a livable world for all?

“My concern is that some of these climate activists might face emotional turmoil.”

Where do we go from here?

Eco-anxiety means different things for everyone. It may be necessary to take a step back from the events of the climate crisis and ask ourselves, “who am I in the context of climate crisis?”

INTRODUCTION Art, especially concept art, is an important tool needed to visualize an idea. The visual development artists can use story, characters, environments, you name it to build out concepts that will be used as guidelines for a project. Concept art is not only useful for purely fictitious worlds, it can help us visual the future of our own world.

Using concept art we can visualize the world in various states of water presence. We can see landscapes with an abundance of water and life compared to environments that most reflect our own, water presence but signs of drought. We can even visualize environments that are water deficient or completely devoid off it.

Water plays such an important part in life on Earth in all the forms it takes. Water gives life and it lies at the base of our understanding of how life functions.

From the clouds and oceans to our drinking water, we can’t live life without it. However, while we may think we have enough of it now, especially fresh water, that’s not the case. There is not enough worry about the current state of water concern we are facing. Water conservation efforts aren’t what they should be and eventually, once it’s too late, we’ll realize this.

Snow cover helps regulate the temperature of Earth’s surface. Snow’s albedo, or how much sunlight it reflects back into the atmosphere, is very high, reflecting 80 to 90 percent of the incoming sunlight. The high reflectivity helps balance energy and keep the planet cool.

“This painting is a crossover between landscape and the abstract. As the abstract shapes developed into architectural structures, I then began the process of elimination. The painting then took on a whole new life. A story of past, present and future. A reminder of not only what we are so fortunate enough to have, but also of what we once had, and what we could hopefully still have, at least for as long as nature and the universe intended it.�

“Hydrological drought is associated with the effects of periods of precipitation (including snowfall) shortfalls on surface or subsurface water supply (i.e., streamflow, reservoir and lake levels, groundwater).

The frequency and severity of hydrological drought is often defined on a watershed or river basin scale.

Although all droughts originate with a deficiency of precipitation, hydrologists are more concerned with how this deficiency plays out through the

hydrologic system. Hydrological droughts are usually out of phase with or lag the occurrence of meteorological and agricultural droughts. It takes longer for precipitation deficiencies to show up in components of the hydrological system such as soil moisture, streamflow, and groundwater and reservoir levels. As a result, these impacts are out of phase with impacts in other economic sectors.”

“5 billion years later, our sun exhausted out its energy and expanded into a Red Giant. The earth is no longer a habitable planet, meanwhile, Titan, the largest moon of the Saturn, is getting warmer and more habitable. With the complexity of organic elements existed for millions of years on Titan, evolution gifted this lonely moon with complicated creatures. After a globally disastrous drought lasted for millions of years, these ancient oceanic creatures evolved into beings able to walk upright. Now they are migrating to the paradise with abundant water resource, where they may never reach.�

THE AUTHORS COLOR OF SPACE

“My grandfather told my father, who in turn told me, the resources are none. That’s why my belly stings when I wake up each morning. That’s why no tears fall when I get dust in my eyes. In every tall bubble you see around us, the authors exist. So does life.

As the world as my family had known it, collapsed, a collective of the most wealthy and influential fought over the fragments of resources that still clung to existence. They were hoarding these remaining resources, and eventually found the ideal means of storage for what they took, the tall bubbles. When the majority of fresh water and resources were used up, the bubbles were left scattered across the landscape as hollow, immovable monuments to a far better and more survivable life. A halcyon. The bubbles exist in this endless landscape as a monolithic collective, odeto-ignorance, a poem meant to be sung, mocking humans day in and day out. In every tall bubble on the earth, an A.I. exists embedded within, generating the only existing resources left. Now we stand, barely. They control the resources, kept up in the tops of their bubbles. They also control when we move, and where we move. We must follow, in hopes they will continue to give. We

do not know for how long. We do not know why.

But the authors are imperfect, they malfunction; they die. There are others as well, in various parts of the world, across other landscapes, living near different authors. When an author dies, it causes a mass exodus of the people it once sustained. The people must roam until they find another tower, and with it, another group of people. Assimilation isn’t always easy, and sometimes this ends in chaos, destruction, and war. Other times, peaceful integration and acceptance.

All I hope is tomorrow, our Author lives, and gives once again.”
