This panel brings together three writers thinking deeply about climate, grief and the links between people and their environments. Australian authors Romy Ash (Mantle) and Bri Lee (Seed) speak about their powerful works of climate fiction, set against the wild landscapes of lutruwita/Tasmania and Antarctica respectively, while Slovenian poet and researcher Ana Svetel gives insight into the changing landscapes of Iceland and the Alps. With Nadia Bailey.
