In every space, we are reminded:
We are the ecosystem. ๐ค๐ค๐โค๏ธ๐
#WeAreTheEcosystem #EcoWomanist #EWISE
We can take the first step by dropping the analogy of "balancing humans and nature" and introduce Nature as a web where each of us* have many threads interconnecting to one another. The goal is to ensure those connections are hale

"Our National Parks, no matter how grand in scale, are too small and separated from one another to preserve (native) species to the levels needed. Thus, the concept for Homegrown National Park"

Humans burned and grazed lands for thousands of years. A vast horizon that is without trees is almost guaranteed to have once been forested a few millennia ago, some a century, and others as recently as a decade ago.

Human centric living clears anything deemed wild = habitat destruction and cutting off wildlife from reaching each other. Drought and Floods. All the way up to #ClimateChange because we acted as separate from the rest of nature. We're part of the ecosystem time to act like it #WeAreTheEcosystem

Highways are not just a human thing! Other species have routes too! Unfortunately, humans have built up so much that other species are unable to reach food, shelter, and each other. Break these barriers with Coexistence Corridors! #WildlifeCorridor #Rewild #WeAreTheEcosystem #Saegoah #Solarpunk
Rehydrating the landscape with proper earthworks will address both drought and flooding #Permaculture
Our built environment must be designed as part of our ecosystem if we want to tackle environmental events. #WeAreTheEcosystem #Saegoah
