Mahmoud Darwish, Memory for Forgetfulness: August, Beirut, 1982 (trans. Ibrahim Muhawi) [ID'd]
on context: "[set during] the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the shelling of Beirut [...] Memory for Forgetfulness is an extended reflection on the invasion and its political and historical dimensions. It is also a journey into personal and collective memory. What is the meaning of exile? What is the role of the writer in time of war? What is the relationship of writing (memory) to history (forgetfulness)?" (source)

I know most news is all fear based but the climate change articles are very very real. This is mostly on all the big corporations/businesses out there and knowing what they have been doing for money since day one. A innovation of many of these companies needs to be a climate friendly one. Thinking of the future for our children instead of the now network guys. 😕
