Product description...

Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.”
~ Albert Einstein

In the latter half of the 21st century, the plight of the planet reached a critical juncture as extreme ecological events ravaged the earth with increasing ferocity. From relentless droughts to catastrophic floods, from devastating hurricanes to merciless tornados, the signs of imminent ecological collapse were unmistakable. Global warming, fueled by rampant greenhouse gas emissions, threatened to unleash irreversible damage, while deforestation and food shortages compounded the crisis, pushing humanity towards the brink of extinction. Amidst the chaos, hope emerged in the form of the Green Belt—a visionary project spearheaded by NASA scientist Leon Stolski. Through a stroke of unparalleled ingenuity, Stolski and his team devised a system of satellites capable of manipulating water and clouds on a global scale. The transformative potential of the Green Belt was nothing short of miraculous: barren deserts were being turned into lush farmland, and the ominous specter of climate change began to recede. Yet as the world celebrated this triumph of innovation, a new and formidable adversary emerged—the Revelationaries. Rooted in a fervent and literal interpretation of Revelation, this zealous sect saw the Green Belt, not as salvation, but as brazen attempt to usurp the divine order of nature. For them, the solution to humanity’s plight lay not in the hands of science, but in the undeniable will of God. Against the backdrop of ideological conflict, The Green Belt explores the complex interplay between science and faith, raising profound questions about the nature of progress, the power of belief, and the precarious balance between human ingenuity and divine providence. As the stakes escalate, tensions reach a boiling point, while the fate of the planet hangs in the balance.
