"In a key decision on climate change and biodiversity, Parties [of the UN Convention on #Biodiversity] reaffirmed their long-standing precautionary approach to #geoengineering, sending a strong signal that these highly speculative technologies should have no part in the response to the #climate crisis." https://www.ciel.org/news/cbd-cop16-reaffirms-geoengineering-moratorium-fails-fossil-fuel-phaseout/


“We’re in the midst of the sixth great #extinction,” Dr Goodall tells me during our interview for BBC Radio 4’s Inside Science. “The more we can do to restore nature and protect existing forests, the better.”

“We still have a window of time to start slowing down #climate change and loss of #biodiversity,” Dr Goodall says. “But it's a window that's closing.”

"There are instances of reparative democracy all over the world.
Some are fleeting and partial; others are more sustained. Many emerge from the indigenous and the young, who do not need to be told that human and nonhuman life are interdependent, that the world is in an emergency state, and that constitutional liberal democracy is both incapable of addressing that emergency and itself an exhausted form."
"For reparative democracy oriented by the ecological emergency, for example, we need new ways of envisioning and hearing the nonhuman and our place within it. Sound theory, and especially bioacoustics, has much to teach us here. So also do some parts of indigenous cosmologies and ways of knowing." Wendy Brown
