The planet is warming and we are responsible.
For writers from India, Wales and Scotland
Climate change is the most serious global issue.

In this anthology compiled by charity Sustainable Wales Cymru Gynaliadwy they describe its effects on their home areas.

With the help of the past, they look forward. For some the future might be marvellous, for others terrifying.

But sombre or surreal
For all of them
That future is here.

Edited by Robert Minhinnick

Gorwelion: Shared Horizons is a climate change anthology of poetry and prose edited by prize-winning writer and environmental activist Robert Minhinnick, featuring Welsh, Scottish, Indian and English writers. Five writers from India and five from the UK were asked to consider the ‘global’ re: climate change, biodiversity and introduce 'future thinking’. This future might be mundane, marvellous or dreadful.

Contributors from Wales include Peter Finch, Laura Wainwright and Abeer Ameer; from Scotland include Mandy Haggith and Stewart Sanderson; and from India include Sampurna Chatterji.

‘This project aims to imagine what life in Wales could look like in the future as seen through the lens of the cultural dimension of well-being. The Well-being of Future Generations Act requires us to think long-term and broaden our horizons and “Square Mile - Milltir Sgwar” can do just that...’ – Sophie Howe, Future Generations Commissioner for Wales.
