気候変動の影響を最もダイレクトに受ける冬季オリンピック。2026年のミラノ・コルティナ大会は、その「存在意義」をサステナビリティに求めています。
この記事で紹介されている取り組みが、非常に「本質的」だと感じました。 https://rematch3.wordpress.com/2026/01/23/milano-cortina-olympic-2026/
印象的なのは、単に「木を植える」といった表面的な対策に留まらず、40万本の在来種植樹や、車両の電動化・バイオ燃料化など、アルプスの脆弱な生態系を守るための具体的な数値目標が設定されている点です。
「豪華な祭典」から「地球の未来に責任を持つ祭典」へ。 大規模イベントのあり方が変わろうとしている今の潮流を、この記事を通じて強く実感しました。

#Solarpunk: Visions of a #Just, #NaturePositive world
What does a sustainable civilisation look like and how do we get there? A burgeoning movement of #artists and #activists is seeking answers.by Joe Coroneo-Seaman, January 21, 2022
Excerpt: "The concept of solarpunk originally emerged in the late 2000s, when a handful of artists on the social media platform Tumblr began sharing drawings of futuristic green cities. Over time, the aesthetic and ethos evolved into a more robust vision for the world, and in the process has been embraced by other art forms. There are now published collections of solarpunk literature, subgenres of music, movements within architecture and even tabletop role-playing games [#RPGs].
"At the core of this vision is the idea that humans can coexist in harmony with the rest of nature. A solarpunk world is one where vast swathes of land have been returned to #wilderness, rooftop gardens dot the skylines of high-tech cities and vertical farms provide food to their residents.
"Responsible use of #technology is also a prominent theme. #Solar, #wind and #wave power have entirely replaced #FossilFuels as sources of energy, while widespread #3DPrinting has made it much easier to produce things #locally, creating #resilient, #SelfSufficient #communities.
"Increasingly, artists and writers in the solarpunk movement also describe a world that is just and safe for #MarginalisedGroups – especially those facing the brunt of the #climate and #ecological crisis today. '#BIPOC [#Black, #Indigenous and #PeopleOfColour] and #QueerPeople are safe in solarpunk futures,' says Brianna Castagnozzi, co-editor-in-chief of Solarpunk Magazine.
"Although it may seem utopian and idealistic, solarpunk attempts to answer real questions being asked more and more often in light of the unfolding climate and ecological crisis. What can be saved? What does a truly #sustainable civilisation look like? How do we get there?
"It may be a big ask, but it’s now clear that the scale of the environmental crises facing humanity demands #TransformationalChanges to the way we live, as well as the way we think. Art has the power to shape our attitudes, so perhaps it’s time – as Nigerian poet #BenOkri said recently – for artists of all kinds to 'dedicate our lives to nothing short of re-dreaming society'."

If #NetZero is the simple but complex slogan to define the story of where we want to get to with #ClimateChange - where the carbon cycle is brought back into balance - what’s the equivalent story slogan for sustainability? #CircularEconomy? #NaturePositive? Or is it too complex to reduce like that?

"An ethics of probability tends to crowd out an ethics of possibility."
"A technocratic approach can also be self-defeating in policy terms. Render the future too concrete and it becomes harder to think about far-reaching structural change. In the language of the anthropologist Arjun Appadurai, an ethics of probability tends to crowd out an ethics of possibility. Moreover, the precision of targets can make failures more glaring, as goals are missed and deadlines pass.This weakens commitment in adversity – a point made by sympathetic critics of a climate agenda centred on “hitting the carbon numbers”. Arguably one of the preconditions of radical politics is an element of imprecision. The anticolonial thinker and activist Frantz Fanon once warned of the “curious cult of detail” that could afflict the scientific mindset in politics, causing its bearer to lose sight of the bigger picture: “Thus, if a local defeat is inflicted, he may well be drawn into doubt, and from thence to despair.”" Jonathan White

"The hypermarketization of everything", Quinn Slobodian, 2025
Bean counters are attempting to put a monetary value on the complexity of nature
Think of a logged forest.
"The value of the timber produced counts towards Australia’s gross domestic product. But cutting trees down also produces a loss. For example, the forest is no longer there for the community to enjoy. And it no longer provides “services” such as filtering water and preventing soil erosion.""There are many reasons to measure the value of those services. For example, governments might then be able to charge a logging company a licence fee which reflects the community value of the forest. A government may decide the forest is too valuable to allow logging at all, or the fee may just be set too high for any company to find it profitable to log it."
"To date, the value lost when trees are cut down, or other ecosystems are damaged, has not been included in the national accounts. The new environmental accounts seek to change this."

The cost to reverse the decline of priority species and undo damage done by habitat loss, disease and other threats was estimated at $103.7 billion annually, while getting them off the threatened list entirely would require $157.7 billion per year.”"Biodiversity loss and ecosystems collapse is ranked by the World Economic Forum as the second most significant global risk over the next decade, with 50 per cent of the global economy dependent on nature.

138,000+ hectares of koala habitat bulldozed as Albanese fails on new nature laws
"New analysis shows that despite the Albanese government committing to no new extinctions, 138,617 hectares of koala habitat was bulldozed in just one year in Queensland. This forest was bulldozed under the current, weak federal nature laws, leaving the loopholes wide open for further clearing, putting the koala on a fast track to extinction."

Australian nature: if our laws don’t radically change, environmental degradation will continue
"This country has a long history of taking its unique wildlife and landscapes for granted – but what has happened in this term of parliament is remarkable."
"As Australia struggles to pass strong environmental laws, native wildlife pays the price, with habitat disappearing at an astonishing rate here is something significant missing from most of the political and media discussion about the Australian government’s promised, and now abandoned, nature protection laws: the environment.Logically, it should be a focus of the debate. In practice, it barely gets a look-in."

The Nature Positive deal: “The barbarians flexed their muscles and that was that.”
"Environment minister agreed detail with Greens but the PM intervened after lobbying from WA premier and miners. But sadly, until now, we have not been able to land an agreement, because it seems the miners and the loggers in this place have more influence than the environment minister, and that’s a real shame...The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act, which Plibersek’s bill would have amended, would have helped repair “a completely broken system”.

Australia-wide ban on native-forest logging?

Nature Positive
Australia's collapsing ecosystems declared a 'critical infrastructure'Australia has destroyed and degraded nature. The remaining collapsing ecosystems are declared a 'critical infrastructure'. This new system of governance to organise life is framed as a 'Nature Positive' policy with the help of a large consulting business.
The remaining nature is now a market not a common good and has no rights (Rights of Nature laws). The ‘more-than-human-worlds’ becomes a market of 'ecosystem services' to serve a few of the human species. Nature is now a mere 'essential infrastructure' like roads, highway, sewers, sewage etc.

Nature Positive
Australia's collapsing ecosystems declared a 'critical infrastructure'Australia has destroyed and degraded nature. The remaining collapsing ecosystems are declared a 'critical infrastructure'. This new system of governance to organise life is framed as a 'Nature Positive' policy with the help of a large consulting business.
The remaining nature is now a market not a common good and has no rights (Rights of Nature laws). The ‘more-than-human-worlds’ becomes a market of 'ecosystem services' to serve a few of the human species. Nature is now a mere 'essential infrastructure' like roads, highway, sewers, sewage etc.

"At least 19 Australian ecosystems have been reported to show signs of collapse or near collapse."

My writeup of the Nature Positive Summit that ocurred in Sydney 8-10 October. I am sure there were positive interactions, but by reports financialisation of nature and biodiversity an important focus. A Talkfest, while the Australian and NSW Governments lacked ambition and were using it to greenwash nature negative activities such as approving new coal mines or logging native forests.
