Nature
The Architect of Earth
Leo Maxwell designed steel and glass. For twenty-five years, his hands, once agile and dreaming of organic forms, had shaped skyscrapers that pierced city skies, their sleek facades reflecting an ambition that no longer felt like his own. He was good at it, exceptionally so. His name appeared in glossy architecture magazines, his firm won bids, and his apartment overlooked a vast, glittering expanse of urban sprawl – a monument to his meticulous, yet increasingly soul-crushing, work.

The Great Oxygenation Event
The Great Oxygenation Event: When Earth's Atmosphere Changed Forever Imagine standing on the surface of the Earth over 2.5 billion years ago. The sky above you isn’t blue — it’s more likely a hazy shade of orange or even green, thick with methane and carbon dioxide. The oceans are vast and teeming with microbial life, but there’s no lush greenery, no fish, no birds, and certainly no humans. In fact, in this ancient world, oxygen — the very gas that powers our breathing — is barely present at all.

The Day I Almost Gave Up on Life
Iever thought I'd see myself at the edge — not the metaphorical one, but a very real edge of a rooftop, staring into the emptiness below. It was a cold evening in January, the sky was a dull gray, and the city lights blinked like indifferent eyes in the distance. Everything felt quiet, almost too quiet. That silence screamed louder than any noise I'd ever heard.

When the Sun Turns Dangerous: A Story of Heat, Change, and Responsibility
Summer was once freedom. It was once taking long walks, ice cream running down our hands, kids playing until the horizon was orange, and laughter echoing from the sidewalks. But now it's something different—something more.
