The Appalachia Catastrophe
Mergoat Mag, Vol. 3, No. 1
By Mergoat
In this issue of Mergoat Magazine, we make an effort to understand the conceptual complexity that lies behind the term “catastrophe,” and to continue processing the collective grief, trauma, and chaos imposed on our region by these forces.
We look to broadly assess the environmental toll Hurricane Helene took on our watersheds and woodlands.
We also seek to account for and celebrate the people-powered recovery and broad networks of mutual aid that have worked tirelessly to protect our people after.
Mergoat Magazine is a publication that provides a collective, interdisciplinary record of the ecological situation throughout Southern Appalachia and the broader Southeast.
