About the Item: The Fault is Not in Our Stars takes its name from Shakespeare’s words in Julius Caeser “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves...” The work calls out the causes of Climate Change, sea rise, scarcity of fresh drinking water and more as problems of our own making. The Fault is Not in Our Stars is from the Seeds of Change series of 35 works that suggest that, if we listen, science can lead us away from environmental devastation and climate change. The ideas for preserving our fragile planet are described as “seeds of change”—ideas that can be “planted” and can grow into a better future.
