[ File : The Potential of Environmental History.pdf ]
In this document, the author asks us to look out the window. What we see, regardless of it is natural of manufactured, is a consequence of human design. What we see is also a good indication of what our society values.
So, when I look outside my dorm, I see a lot of fucking lawns, ironically on a campus that is *known* for having a lot of environmental students. But what I see is absolutely something indicative of American society, the desire for their land to not be infringed on, the emphasis on "private ownership," and our wasteful tendencies.

This is a good read, although there are a few things I am iffy about, as it reflects some aspects of environmentalism that are often tied to ecofascism (Tragedy of The Commons) as well as a call to not demonize American settlers, as they did not know that their practices were harmful in a land of seemingly limitless resources (not accounting for the indigenous issue there) or label them "bad guys" for trying to survive, but overall, a good point is made about how things can be looked at through environmental history and how the environment around us exists as a reflection of our culture.

LET'S STORM ICE EL PASO CONCENTRATION CAMP, THEY CAN'T STOP US ALL

Cool reminder that land/wealth/social inequality is a factor in this, and when society allows for the continuation of inferior standards of living, they create stunted people, thus keeping the hierarchy intact.

We, as leftists, must break those cycles any way possible, be it by disrupting the cycles in which the rich accumulate wealth, or lifting up communities by developing their means for self sufficiency.
