Abstract

A conductive environment is the most crucial thing for any living being to lead life happily in the world. The environment includes both biotic and abiotic components. At present, people are facing more problems due to environmental issues. This research paper aims to see anthropocentrism through the interaction between humans and the environment in the select American dystopic fictions The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi and Gold Fame Citrus by Claire Vaye Watkins. These novels' major themes deal with climate change, water shortage, drought, and other ecological crises. In this research, a qualitative approach has been taken up as a method. The result of the study reveals that humans have more responsibilities to protect water bodies and the environment. People need to follow ethics effectively and not be involved in anthropocentric activities to come out of water shortages. The study reminds us that nature is more powerful than man.
