String quartet and percussion

We all have to relate to the much feared threats to our environment in some way. How will our world be changed in the future if the temperature

keeps rising? In the current situation we have to try to change something, but should we go "back to nature" in some sense or will we solve

the problem with technological means? One thing is clear though, we can't go back in time to how it was before.
