While movements such as Fridays for Future and environmental organizations show us the footprint humans leave on the earth, the amount of destruction and exploitation, from the extinction of species to deforestation, it is hard to grasp just how much change the advent of humanity has brought to the planet. In his 2007 non-fictional book titled “The World Without Us” US author Alan Weisman used research and interviews with scientists and experts in order to present how the world would develop if suddenly mankind would cease to exist, at times with scary and quite revealing results and images. Using the Mekong River Delta as a starting point, the anthology “Mekong 2030” features the vignettes by Anocha Suwichakornpong, Anysay Keola, Kulikar Sotho, Pham ngoc Lan and Sai Naw Kham, and follows a similar idea as Weisman, making assumption on the changes of the landscape and its inhabitants in ten years time.
