I'm very happy to announce my latest book, The Fire Commons. This is about the roles that animals play in Indigenous fire practices, challenging concepts of agency and management and revealing intricate ways in which animals engineer landscapes that are made healthy with cultural fire.

"Bioturbation, the disturbance of soil and litter by digging animals plays an important role for a variety of species and ecological processes in many ecosystems."
Mound-building behaviour of a keystone bioturbator alters rates of leaf litter decomposition and movement in urban reserves

This is also why I like the notion of local organizing with global networking and a global perspective. Different regions will have different needs, from a social perspective, from an engineering perspective, and from an ecological perspective. Folks on the left talk about the intersection between social dynamics like race, sex, gender, class, and so on, and bringing environmental justice into that has brought us to the point where it’s pretty clear that the social, engineering, and ecological perspectives aren’t really different things at all.
