Climate activists: We must ‘infect children’s minds’ with climate fears – Climate activists targeting children with range of ‘cli-fi’ novels
Climate activists targeting children with range of 'cli-fi' novels - Climate change fiction for youngsters is 'taking off in a big way' according to activists - David Thorpe, author of the book Stormteller, said that children were more open minded and claimed that writers could 'infect' their minds with 'seriously subversive viral ideas'. "You can try to be seriously subversive and try to infect their minds with these viral ideas that they can explore on their own to make it exciting. When I was that age I loved having my mind boggled."
