    Jeremy Lent: Ecocivilization

    "Lent’s goal is to synthesize dozens of proven and promising genres of existing projects and real-world activism. Some of these are daring and paradigm-breaking. Others operate well within the dominant market/state system but offer credible possibilities for post-capitalist transitions."

  3. #ClimateDiary Rhine, Danube, Elbe, Loire. Some of Europe’s biggest rivers are going dry this summer

    Thinking about that list of river names, so full of European history and meaning for so many of us. They really ARE us, sources of life, shaping all that Europe is.

    This brings home how vital #RightsOfNature, giving rivers rights, really are. Loire almost there- hope it happens for all, v soon.

    * "Despite the broad acclaim these legal personhood models have received, New Zealand’s government is unravelling protections for the environment. It has disestablished the Ministry for the Environment, attempted to weaken environmental protections in fisheries laws, and plans to reform the Resource Management Act to enable more widespread “fast-track” development." >>

    This means the council will embed the principle that nature has an intrinsic right to exist, thrive and evolve across its governance, decision‑making and service delivery."

    First I feel horrified. Then beyond-sad. And then my rage kicks in that will drive me to take action.

  13. "Despite the vast scale of the issue of light pollution, long-term research and widespread knowledge is lacking. I would therefore like to call on all readers to spread awareness about light pollution and related environmental issues that impact communities today. By taking collective action, society can work towards the transformation of the Anthropocene, into a posthumanist era where humans and nature collaborate to build homes in an entangled web of sacred mutualism. We could then create a sustainable world where environmental and animal rights become equal to human ones. This shift in thought may ultimately lead to a shift in action. So we might finally see the sky again."

    International Environmental Law (IEL) was imagined through the prism of anthropocentric values (which allocates worth to Nature based on its utility for humans). Despite this, IEL has been progressively experiencing a shift towards ecocentric values (which aw
