The Marrow Thieves

Question is down below:

In Miig’s continuation of story, he explains the effects that climate change had on the world: “A melting North meant the water levels rose and the weather changed. It changed to violence in some cases, building tsunamis, spinning tornados, crumbling earthquakes...and all those pipelines in the ground? They snapped like icicles and spewed bile over forests, into lakes, drowning whole reserves and towns” (87). What is Dimmaline's view of climate change?

The Marrow Thieves is a work of speculative climate fiction. It speculates about a not-so-distant future in which the climate crisis has progressed, killing half of the human population and leaving much of the earth uninhabitable. Dimaline makes clear that while the novel includes fantastical elements, it also seeks to reflect on the future we may actually face if the climate crisis deepens.
