Biodiversity conservation needs a conceptual shift and be more ecologically contextual https://news.mongabay.com/2023/02/biodiversity-conservation-needs-a-conceptual-shift-and-be-more-ecologically-contextual-commentary/ #Biodiversity #EcosystemManagement

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.

There are real and important benefits to modern technology, social innovations, etc., that have made life better, and for many people possible. What we need is to make a societal priority out of global ecosystem health in a way that includes us as a part of that global ecosystem.

Hence, #ecosocialism , hence #solarpunk , hence #climatejustice, hence the call to #organize and build #CollectivePower.

I think this research supports my preferred approach of ending capitalism, and integrating our development into our surrounding ecosystems as much as possible.
