In Weather, How does Offill use Lizzie and her experiences to challenge both environmental and social traditionalism?

I want to use the Parable of The Sower by Octavia Butler

What role does religion play in the climate crisis and in novels that explore this Cli-fi narrative as well as the climate crisis?

I think this question doesn’t portray what I am trying to ask. Religion played a big role in reforming the new “world” that Lauren was creating. I wanted to know if religion does play a part and if other novels have also taken this route of what religion can do to shape or change the climate crisis. Throughout The Sower, Lauren took from the religion she was initially taught and used it to make a new movement, where the same scriptures she was taught didn’t leave people hoping for someone to save them. But left them in positions where they knew they had to do something to catapult this change.

How does Parable of the Sower show Lauren’s character development as an encapsulation of a morally benevolent person in terms of Freud psychoanalytic studies and challenge that construct simultaneously; what does it say about the Climate fiction literature genre motif to move people towards a direction of action?

• How do Lauren’s experiences with other survivors in Parable of the Sower challenge/reinforce the concept of individualism vs collectivism in the context of a post-apocalyptic world?

The anthropocene seeks to explore the phenomenon of the “human era” and how it has manifested in different ways. How does the presence of capitalism and class in Parable of the Sower and other novels present the reality of the anthropocene?
