“A narrow class of people is profiting from our anguish.”

Not just cli-fi, a warning. Tim Winton in this weeks Guardian, writing about his book Juice, written in a future world post horror zone of global warming and the parallels of oligarchs choosing greed over people, the deserved need of truth from the media both good and bad, and the hope of securing a better existence for future generations.

(Juice was in August 2025 and a favourite of our readers and team.)

Oh this is IT!!! 🩷
