Pollution & Environmentalism
This is what we need to reflect Living in the City
This area could very easily trip into Science Fiction: with pollution and traffic requirements of any given city ruining the landscape and long term health of its citizens just one of the areas of concern. The tension between metropolitanism/demands of consumer and environmentalism is rarely covered but is welcome here. The need for green spaces, houses and cars, with the local governing bodies tussling between the need for all is never given a story. These tensions are worked at in modern city life and should be given a dramatic form. Works of fiction and the Public Information Broadcast are particularly welcome.
