Young adult post-catastrophe dystopia. The Standards were the few survivors of bacterial warfare and lived on an Earth that was recovering slowly. They stressed no waste and no pollution, but their society was becoming stagnant.

These people decide to keep the races pure but to cooperate otherwise and will become examples to the Standards.
