Set against the backdrop of the Great Barrier Reef, Gladstone, Australia, serves as a microcosm of the world's contradictions. The town thrives on industrial growth from coal and gas, presenting a facade of prosperity while grappling with significant pollution and environmental concerns. This juxtaposition highlights the precarious balance between development and sustainability, capturing the essence of a world in crisis yet striving for progress.
