This article is devoted to the analysis of two works (Dominika Słowik’s Samosiejki and Barbara Klicka’s Reneta), which in terms of genre fit into climate fiction. In the first part of the article (before the disaster) I focus on the collection of short stories by Słowik, in the second (after the disaster) on Klicka’s novel. Both authors describe climate changes that are a harbinger of an unspecified catastrophe. In both works, the construction of time is important, events are located in the past, present and future, which draws the reader’s attention to the fact that global warming is a progressive process in which changes in nature should be registered and responded to. Even though the authors use a realistic convention to talk about global warming, the language differs.
