Oxygénia
In the year 3069, space farer Peter MacGulliver who is used to a happy life on a healthy and clean planet Earth strands on a planet which environment is completely ruined by heavy pollution, where there isn't even any oxygen left in the atmosphere and where billions of humanoid beings have to live with gas masks and rationed oxygen for their whole life – Oxygénia. On his long way to escape this living nightmare, Peter has to get to know all three major layers of the society of Oxygénia: Trunk Bearers, Rememberers and the "upper ten thousand" (one hundred lineages with one hundred members), the last ones living in a literal paradise and sheer luxury on the expense of all others. There are also some refugees and renegades amongst the Rememberers... can Peter escape Oxygénia, get back to his spaceship and his wife who is waiting there for him? This novel is a grim dark vision of what can very well become of Earth if mankind goes on the way it has done for the last few centuries. Today, there are already structures on Earth similiar to the dreadful "Oxygénia Trust" with its one hundred lineages, "elites" who don't bother about the fate of billions of other humans; there is pollution and climate change which is both very well capable of turning Earth into Oxygénia if our species doesn't change the set course very soon. See what the future might be like, and let's hope and take actions that it's not too late already, that we still can get off the path we're on to now – the path to Oxygénia.

"Clock is ticking, clock is ticking", it hammered in Peters brain<br />
while he tied up and secured the man's arms, then searched his<br />
pockets and collected the instruments and notes he found. Now he<br />
lifted his prisoner to his shoulders and carried him to the banana<br />
grove, to the hidden car. He pushed him inside, called loudly "point<br />
T-3" and slammed the door of the car shut. The marvellous snow<br />
white car shuddered and began to move, and down the road it<br />
raced, towards the Mirror Pond.<br />
At the entrance of the airport, the cherry red car waited with<br />
open doors. Now, Peter took the bag and looked around for which<br />
else equipment the man ordered to pick up July could have had<br />
with him. In front of the seat, he found another small white case,<br />
like the ones glasses are stored in; presumably it had fallen from<br />
the man's pocket during the attack. Peter took this one, too,<br />
grabbed the bigger case and walked towards the entrance of the<br />
secret airport, leaving the cherry red car behind with open doors.<br />
