https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f What is the significance of these quotations from Bookchin? 1. “Nearly all our present ecological problems arise from deep-seated social problems.” 2. “To the degree that nonhuman nature is romanticized as ‘wilderness,’ and seen presumably as more authentically ‘natural’ than the works of humans, the natural world is frozen into a circumscribed domain . . . .” 3. “With the rise of hierarchy and human domination, however, the seeds are planted for a belief that nature not only exists as a world apart, but that it is hierarchically organized and can be dominated.” 4. “It is crucially important to recognize that industrial growth does not result from a change in cultural outlook alone. . . . It stems above all from harshly objective factors churned up by the expansion of the market itself, factors that are largely impervious to moral considerations and efforts at ethical persuasion.” en-us 2021-02-18 20:54:38 UTC 2021-02-23 21:35:03 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233798713 2021-02-23 21:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233798713 https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233806051 1. Our environmental problems are human caused. We forget that we are causing our own issues. We can't fix the environment without first fixing our own societal issues and be able to work together. 
 3,4. Both speak on the issue brought up in 1 but elaborate that it is a specific kind of cultural organization that is leading to our destructive habits and that it isn't just human nature to be consumptive and that we can have an effect by changing our culture and moving away from hierarchies. ]]> 2021-02-23 21:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233806051 https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233810199 Nathan, Jessica, Dylan, Grace
1. Separate from  natural disasters, the way humans interact with each other. Some of these causes are from the definition of progress and the social actions that that arise because of them. Environmental issues arise because of bigger social problems that we don't see the other effects of. 
3. Beliefs and moral agents can encourage the diminishing of the natural world. Conflicts that arise because of beliefs often have a large impact on our environment that we don't think of as the conflict is occurring. New generations have developed in a different way than what this quote is speaking on. Younger people have started to view nature as something that is residual and something we need and live apart of instead of something that can be used for our benefits.]]> 2021-02-23 21:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233810199 https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233811431 Zoe, Trudy, Devin, Taylor
2. “To the degree that nonhuman nature is romanticized as ‘wilderness,’ and seen presumably as more authentically ‘natural’ than the works of humans, the natural world is frozen into a circumscribed domain . . ."

Bookchin is saying that the "unnatural" is still natural, because it is a product of evolution, which is natural.

1. Humans are the source of their own problems and the problems cannot truly be addressed until the other issues are taken care of.]]> 2021-02-23 21:22:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233811431 https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233820884 Devin R., Dom G., Brendan T., Erikson H
1. These social issues are rooted in this "dominance of nature" (pg. 13) mindset that humans use when defining "civilized" and "wild" areas. (among other things). This mindset is the root that social ecology aims to overcome, once we can work through this mindset, we will be able to genuinely solve these deeply interconnected issues our planet is facing. ]]> 2021-02-23 21:25:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jsellen1/ob8j1wgj63gshh7f/wish/1233820884
