Nature Futures publishes dystopian short story 'I who have never known trees'

Nature's science-fiction feature Futures ran a short story depicting numbered workers confined to a windowless facility, sedated with pills and coffee, weaving filaments under fluorescent light while elders recall a vanished world of trees. The piece imagines a future where natural landscapes have been erased and human labor is mechanized, monitored, and chemically controlled.
