Columbus, the Caribbean, and the Origins of the Climate Crisis
Q: Can you elaborate just on Eden as a place, an imaginary, and the impact that it's had both in the characters and the locations that you write about in your book?

Columbus, the Caribbean, and the Origins of the Climate Crisis

My story begins in 1492, or rather 1491, with Columbus' arrival to the Americas, which is a pivotal moment for the climate crisis.

We're seeing a mix, including environmental advocates joining human rights discussions and vice versa.

Human rights frameworks provide tools for advocates and help center the human impact of climate change.
