This one was interesting because it took the perspective of someone who loves the changes that climate change caused -- who loves the lake formed where houses used to be, enjoys diving to pick through the things she can find there. It's not meant to be ghoulish or something -- it's just the way the world is for her, the way she's grown up, and she finds a beauty in it that others can't see.
