"Whispers of the Whale" is a design project that uncovers Durban's hidden past. The project's title hints that it might focus on the city's maritime history, perhaps through the lens of an imagined whale. By using design methods, the project sheds light on forgotten aspects of Durban's story. It's possible the project uses visual elements or product design to communicate these historical findings.

Dr. Matt, for your Environmental Studies course, I propose "Karoo's Uneven Anthropocene Burden." This book tackles the environmental and social challenges faced by South Africa's Karoo region in our current epoch, the Anthropocene. The Karoo disproportionately bears the weight of human impact on the planet, from resource extraction to climate change, while its communities fight for a sustainable future.The book dives into how these issues unfold, examining the consequences for the Karoo's delicate ecosystems and its people. We'll also explore concepts of environmental justice, as the Karoo's unique position often makes it a target for unsustainable practices.But "Karoo's Uneven Anthropocene Burden" isn't all doom and gloom. It highlights ongoing efforts for a just transition. We'll explore innovative solutions, community-based conservation initiatives, and strategies for mitigating the negative impacts of the Anthropocene. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the environmental challenges of the Karoo, the concept of environmental justice, and the fight for a sustainable future in a region burdened by human impact.
