Field Notes On Scarcity

<p>Scarcity of resources in all forms is commonly portrayed negatively. Yet these conditions¿which have long been a reality in many extreme climate conditions across the global south and are increasingly becoming a global reality¿often stimulate an abundance of innovation, inspiration, and ingenuity. Permanence has created a climate crisis, with spaces constructed with non-degradable materials, resource extraction without active replenishment, and buildings designed for a single-eternal use. Our present reality is marked by a global pandemic, violent conflicts, and the looming threat of climate change-induced environmental disasters.

Yet there remains an optimism about the creative possibilities that arise within these constraints.<br><strong>
