The Glooom
These are the opening lines of Des Red's endearing space-adventure, "The Glooom", which tells the tale of rival species inhabiting a ravaged planet and its lush orbiting moon. Needless to say, in these times of greater ecological awareness, it has become a modern classic; an entertaining way to inform children (and everyone) about the climate crisis. It has been adapted into an animated short-film.
