I haven’t heard of this before and this was such a clear introduction to social ecology, thank you. The reminder that ecological problems are rooted in social systems (not individual choices or vague “human nature”) is something I wish more people grasped. I especially appreciated the emphasis on mutual aid and care as radical, transformative acts. Excited to keep learning alongside this series. It’s exactly the kind of thinking and reimagining we need right now

thank you for this! i started reading Ecology of Freedom recently. it seems like exactly what i've been looking for in a political philosophy.

I have come to believe the smallest unit of life is the Eco-system.
