2020’s Young Romantic essayists are asked to address this question:

PB Shelley (sort of)
How can the poetry of PB Shelley and/or John Keats help us in our current climate crisis?
Your answer can take whatever form you choose: a literary critical essay, a political comment piece, a polemic for your personal blog. But the article should be no shorter than 750 words and no longer than 1000.
