PH NEGATIVE
period: 2030-2060
location: DTLA, California
crisis: hyper-corrosive acid rain
focus: bioremediation
// TERMINAL ENTRY 4.26.2040
Humanity has breached a devastating limit of atmospheric toxin. Clouds swell, condensing water vapor within a smog of insidious emission. The dense urbanscape of Los Angeles experiences ultra-corrosive acid rain, pouring in sporatic deluges across the city.
The situation is critical.
Surviving angelinos usher in a proliferation of collaborative thought, discipline, and ingenuity. They harness biological processes within their technology; uniting with nature against nature- the essence of the mature anthropocene.
Within the broiling cavities, pedestrians claim a new public space, exploring the path to remediation.
