Shakespeare's Globe | The Guardian: From “shall I compare thee to a summer’s day” to “one touch of nature made the whole world kin”, some of the most famous lines in William Shakespeare’s works are about the relationship between humans and the environment.

I think this is a really great way to bring to light what is happening within our climate today, while also giving playwrights a chance to explore more of the environmental or naturalistic side they can bring to the story. As someone who is passionate about the environment, I feel this is a great way to combine both environment and art. I recently watched Hurricane Diane, which relates to the current state of climate change and how society is responding to it, while also bringing to light queer relationships and experiences. This is a modern play and one of the few pieces that I can remember that brings to light the naturalistic world. This may be because it is the first thing I have watched in a while and because I simply have forgotten every other show that has an environmental aspect to it. I think it is a great way to get playwrights to explore another societal issue on top of the multiple topics to be written about.
