Survival. Resilience. Hope. In a world ravaged by climate chaos, thirty-four voices rise to tell stories of humanity's greatest challenge.
As rising seas swallow coastal cities and extreme weather reshapes landscapes, ordinary people face extraordinary choices. A young Guatemalan girl named Valeria, separated from her family, finds unlikely sanctuary with an elderly woman who teaches her about nature's most resilient creatures. In Boston's drowning streets, residents navigate a new reality of canals and gondoliers. Meanwhile, Barnie Quinn, an animal control worker, witnesses the heartbreaking aftermath of environmental collapse as pet owners are forced to abandon their beloved animals. As these lives intersect and transform, a music teacher named Cassie makes haunting predictions that no one wants to hear. But when her prophecies start coming true, the community faces a chilling question: If they accept the truth of their situation, can they still find the strength to survive?
