The Last Horizon
‘Humanity is at a crossroads’ could be the start of any number of science fiction stories. Unfortunately for humanity, as a cursory google of the phrase will reveal, we appear to be living through our very own science fiction story. The decisions that individuals, communities, and nations make now will have a profound effect on our future.

What is The Last Horizon?
The Last Horizon is a cross-genre collection of eighteen stories inspired by climate change, compiled and edited by Matt Beeson and A J Dalton. Matt Beeson has worked as a risk engineer focussing on clean energy for the last ten years. He believes in the clean energy transition and the importance of stories.
The book is intended to entertain and inspire, to help to generate a spark of empathy, and to tell some of the stories of climate change, some that you might expect, and some that you definitely won’t!
Fantastic cover art by Charlotte Pang and internal artwork provided by Gabriela Houston brings the book to life and makes it a treasure to own and read.
“There are shades of Watership Down and The Road in here… Well recommended.”

Meet The Stories
Matt Beeson offers a rounded (but occasionally sweary!) take on climate change in an entertaining introduction, considering four key Axioms:
Climate change is not a ___ problem, it’s a human one!
Telling the stories of climate change is important.
There is nothing more human than the telling of stories.
It’s ok to know the right thing and not be able to do it right now. You can still aspire to it!
