Breda, Nadia. "Are Anthroposophists Environmentalists?" Public Anthropologist 1, no. 2 (September 14, 2019): 208–23. http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/25891715-00102005.

Abstract:

Can anthroposophists be considered environmentalists? Based on the author’s recent ethnographic research, this article seeks to delineate the profile of the anthroposophical environmentalist, a figure belonging to a particular form of environmentalism. In the last two centuries, anthroposophy (founded by Rudolf Steiner, 1861-1925) has elaborated a universalistic narrative named “spiritual science.” Today, through a “salvific approach” and a “karstic life,” anthroposophy informs different, blended, environmental practices intertwined with ecological and social issues that include spirituality, anti-modernism, human-nonhuman relationships and alternative sciences. Consequently, the ecological movements inspired by anthroposophy have a wide and increasing diffusion globally and this, in turn, stimulates anthropology to produce appropriate ethnographic knowledge of this form of environmentalism.

Abstract:

In addressing mounting environmental problems in recent years, many Iranian environmentalists have increasingly adapted discourses and implemented programs that are modeled on scientific ecology. Does this mean the verbatim transfer of Western scientific modernity in Iran? My analyses suggest otherwise. This article explores the unique ways in which a burgeoning environmental awareness unfolds in Iranian contexts by investigating how conceptions of "nature" shape the environmentalists' discourses and practices. It appears that an ecological scientific conception of nature is becoming an important frame of reference among such environmentalists. However, another conception of nature-one framed in relation to Iranian nationhood-makes a key contribution to environmentalism in Iran. Drawing on fieldwork conducted in 2009-2011 in Tehran, this study demonstrates how "Iranian nature" is delineated and practiced through the environmentalists' (re)engagements with certain objects-maps, posters, and photographs-in relation to which local ways of conceptualizing nature are elaborated.

Abstract:

To advance understandings of how neoliberal ideologies are linked to peoples' everyday environmentalist practices, this article examines processes through which green neoliberal subjects are made. Bringing together critical perspectives on green neoliberalism and symbolic interactionist perspectives on identities, I develop the concept of green neoliberal identity work, a mechanism through which neoliberal environmentalist subjects are produced. I use environmentalists' promotions and uses of compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) as a case study, and employ mixed qualitative methods and grounded theory analysis. Data were collected in North Carolina through interviews, participant observation, and texts. The data reveal four generic patterns of green neoliberal identity work: celebrations and renunciations of particular technologies, inclusive-talk, performing moral math, and technological progress-talk. These patterns show that framing green neoliberal subject formation through the lens of identity work illuminates how these subjects form themselves through micro-level social processes, and opens up different ways of thinking about resistance.Keywords: environmentalism, neoliberalism, identity work, subjectivities, identities

Abstract:

AbstractMany environmentalists draw upon religious teachings to argue that humanity ought to transform its relationship with the natural world. They maintain that religious systems teach that the earth is sacred and has an intrinsic value beyond its use value to humanity. However, whilst many cultures have religious practices or teachings associated with the natural world, such traditions of nature religion ought to be distinguished from religious environmentalism. This paper suggests that religious environmentalism is limited because it is a product of Western ideas about nature, in particular a 'romantic' vision of nature as a realm of purity and aesthetic value. Although in India, for example, people worship certain trees, this is not evidence of an inherent environmental awareness, if only because such practices are very ancient and pre-date concerns about a global environmental crisis. Moreover, many people in developing countries, such as India, are directly dependent upon the natural world and cannot afford radically to alter their behaviour towards nature to accommodate religious environmentalist goals.

Abstract:

The publication of the Ecomodernist Manifesto in 2015 marked a high point for post-environmentalism, a set of ideas that reject limits and instead advocate urbanization, industrialization, agricultural intensification, and nuclear power to protect the environment. Where, how, and why did post-environmentalism come about? Might it influence developments in the future? We trace the origins of post-environmentalism to the mid-2000s in the San Francisco Bay Area and show how it emerged as a response to perceived failures of U.S. environmentalism. Through a discourse analysis of key texts produced by the primary actors of post-environmentalism, namely the Oakland, California-based Breakthrough Institute and its cofounders Ted Nordhaus and Michael Shellenberger, we show how the theory behind post-environmentalism mixes a deconstructionist trope familiar to political ecologists with a modernization core from liberal economics. We discuss the contradictions of post-environmentalist discourse and argue that despite its flaws, post-environmentalism can hold considerable sway because its politics align with powerful interests who benefit from arguing that accelerating capitalist modernization will save the environment. We conclude that political ecology has a much more nuanced take on the contradictions post-environmentalists stumble upon, disagreeing with those political ecologists who are choosing to ally with the agenda of the Manifesto.Keywords: ecomodernism; ecological modernization; discourse analysis; environmental politics

Abstract:

The paper describes and analyzes the responses of insurance companies to global climate politics. It shows how these responses failed to live up to the initial optimism of environmentalists and commentators about the potential of the involvement of insurers in climate politics. It then attempts to explain why insurers have disappointed environmentalist expectation. It shows that part of this is due to constraints and opportunities within the insurance business itself. But it then shows how much of the reason is to do with a simplistic understanding by environmentalists of the power of insurers. Examining the political-economic contexts in which insurance companies operate provides a clearer picture as to the limits to the role insurers can play in mitigating global warming.

Abstract:

Ecomodernism is a protechnology environmentalist movement spearheaded by the Breakthrough Institute. Ecomodernists are concerned with typical environmentalist concerns: climate change; air and water pollution; carbon-free energy; pesticide, fertilizer, and antibiotics pollution; and mass extinctions. Antinuclear is usually on the list but not so for ecomodernists. Ecomodernists advocate technological solutions to these issues and promote nuclear power as a low-carbon, small-land footprint and a high-density energy source to replace fossil fuels and to meet a growing global demand for energy (2 to 3 times current use by the end of the century). Ecomodernists also advocate high-yield mechanized food production and the concentration of human populations into urban areas to make room for more wild environments for other creatures. This article introduces the reader to ecomodernism and pronuclear environmentalists and urges Christians concerned about creation care to consider ecomodernism as an approach consistent with their Christian faith.

Demchuk, Andrea Madelaine Katherine. "The Stikine : Tahltans, environmentalists, and B.C. Hydro." Thesis, University of British Columbia, 1985. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/25379.

Full text

Abstract:

The Stikine and Iskut Rivers in northwest British Columbia form one of the last pristine wilderness river systems in North America. B.C. Hydro and Power Authority has, as part of its longterm development strategy, plans to dam the rivers some time early in the next century. These plans are opposed by the Tahltan Indians for whom the Stikine-Iskut Basin is an ancestral home and by numerous environmental organizations. This thesis analyzes the interaction of these opposition groups in light of the general literature on the Indian land claims and environmental movements. This is accomplished in four chapters. The first chapter analyses Indian response to internal colonialism through both the maintenance of the native economy and the land claims movement and examines the history of the North American environmental movement in terms of reformist and deep environmentalism. The two movements are found to differ substantially over issues such as land use control and resource development. The second chapter traces Tahltan and environmentalist attachments to the Stikine, outlines B.C. Hydro's plans and describes how B.C. Hydro's planning activities would themselves generate controversy. The third chapter discusses and compares Tahltan and environmentalist opposition to B.C. Hydro's plans. The Tahltan opposition is expressed in two forms, both through the persistence of the Tahltan economy, the adherents to which are not represented in a fully funded formal organization and the more predominant Association of United Tahltans. The environmentalist opposition is falls mainly in the reformist stream of environmentalism. The predominant form of Tahltan opposition and the environmentalists are shown to have markedly different objectives. The thesis concludes that the case of the Stikine indicates that there are many obstacles to alliances between the formally defined land claims movement and environmentalists. The most prominent of these obstacles is federal comprehensive claims policy which encourages resource-extractive development by providing for resource royalties in claim settlements. However, the findings from the Stikine also indicate there are numerous points of common interest between Indians committed to the native economy and environmentalists.

Did changes occur in the environment when other people took over the care of the land? Over the last 250 years, the Obispeno Chumash land has evolved from an ecologically green dominion under their stewardship to the present day where the area is noted for its mission, recreational value, wealth of opportunity, and a nuclear power plant located between Morro Bay and Point Buchon along the ocean.

Abstract:

As environmental issues and the communities that confront them increasingly transcend borders, environmentalists in the North (wealthier countries) and the South (poorer countries) face the challenges of effective communication and collaboration. Acknowledging differences in how environmentalists culturally construct the environment is an important starting point; particularly given the tendency on the part of Northern environmentalists to assume (a) that environmentalism is essentially the same in different cultures i.e., it is all like Northern environmentalism; and (b) that environmentalism is more developed in the North. This study examines and compares the constructed environments of a sample of Mexican and Canadian environmentalists. Some significant differences are identified. The environmentalists in the two countries constructed the environment differently as a result of their distinct histories, economies and use of technology. Cultural constructions of the physical environment overlap with and cannot be separated from constructions of the social, cultural, political and economic environment.

Abstract:

Few wildlife-associated recreation models have examined the contributions of wildlife to recreation experiences. In this study, a mail questionnaire was used to examine the wildlife experiences enjoyed by hunters, birders, environmentalists, wildlife professionals, and forestry professionals. In addition, the study also compared the surveyed groups' socioeconomic characteristics, recreation activities, and organizational affiliations, as well as their perceptions concerning approaches to wildlife management, habitat issues, and the social values attributed to wildlife. While responses often differed according to populations, the surveyed groups enjoyed many of the same wildlife watching experiences and, if they hunted, many of the same hunting experiences. The subjects' outdoor recreation activities and organizational affiliations suggested that the populations' interests in wildlife varied according to primary/secondary- and consumptive/nonconsumptive-orientation. Groups sometimes viewed the social values attributed to wildlife differently, but ecological value of wildlife and the value of wildlife to the enjoyment of future generations were important to all groups surveyed. The social values important to subjects personally sometimes differed from the values they believed justified tax expenditures. Generally, both professional groups agreed with use of five wildlife management approaches, but viewed forest habitat issues differently. The user groups were divided about the use of hunting and timber harvesting to help manage some wildlife species and about the adequacy of forest lands in the Southeast U.S. to meet the needs of some species. The professional groups had similar socioeconomic backgrounds. User groups varied according to age, sex, community type, education, and occupation; however, the user groups had similar household incomes.

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes the struggle's aftermath by exploring the newly adopted anti-environmentalist views of Richard Land, Robert Dugan, and others in the wider community. It reveals the impact of the progressive Evangelical Environmental Network (EEN) that helped spur the publication of the religious right's first official anti-environmentalist documents published in 2000. Although these statements represent the accepted and currently held conservative evangelical anti-environmentalist position, the EEN and others continued in their quest for Christian environmental stewardship. The chapter discusses the conspiracy theories connected with environmentalism and evangelicals that date back to the beginning of the environmental movement. It talks about how conservative evangelicals thought that environmentalists were blaming Christianity for the ecological crisis and trying to destroy the Christian faith by advocating the adoption of all other religions elevating the Earth and its creatures to a higher plane above mankind.

Abstract:

The impact of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) on sediments, together with the ultimate transport and migration of constituent chemicals in their dissolved or sorbed states, has led to environmentalists to develop several techniques for cleaning contaminated sediments. Dredging operations for opening new channels or just for maintenance of the existing channels will resuspend the sediments increasing the release of PAHs into the aquatic environment. The impact of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) on sediments, together with the ultimate transport and migration of constituent chemicals in their dissolved or sorbed states, has led to environmentalists to develop several techniques for cleaning contaminated sediments. Cleanup of petroleum contaminated sediments using reactors is presented in this paper. Applicability of biological treatment alone or in combination with other technologies is discussed in detail.

Abstract:

What are natural landscapes? Are they "out there somewhere", separate from people, or are they products of our own perception? The problematic field of research is determined by contradictions: the consideration of the artistic national vision of the natural landscape, the modern vision of the architectural landscape of Russian cities, on the one hand, and the development of ecology as a self-conscious science. "Landscape" originally meant people living inside and forming a capricious nature, but quickly turned into a "natural landscape" reflecting the balance of nature viewed from the outside. Despite repeated scientific demonstrations of the lack of ecological balance now or in the past, environmentalists stubbornly cling to the "romantic" concept of a landscape with nature in balance. In order to rethink and reconfigure ecology and environmental management to better reflect the modern understanding of how nature, including humans, "works", modern architects, urbanists, landscape designers must interact with environmentalists, environmental scientists, and the general public to redefine the nature of nature.

Abstract:

Green development is a kind of development that considers two factors� social and environmental impacts of development. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are tools that can be used in monitoring of the impacts of climate change. They can demonstrate the effects of climate change and they can contribute to the proper management of urban green via their role as decision-making tools. Urban areas have an important role in urban ecosystems through multifunctional role of trees, such as the reduction of extreme temperatures. A digital database was constructed in the framework of the project LIFE Climate Value of Urban Trees- LIFE18 GIC/IT/001217. This database provides data and significant information about green areas, from four mediumsized cities, and is a key tool in urban green management as it takes into account the assessment of urban green. This online database can be used by both� experts and citizens. Aim of this paper is to describe the digital database (lifeclivut.treedb.eu). Web database app was created to be used as a user-friendly tool for experts such as environmentalists, foresters, urban planners with main aim supporting urban green areas. Foresters and environmentalists can use this web app for proper management and design as in this app exist data about the urban trees (tree height, breast diameter, position, tree health).

Abstract:

Abstract Recent concern for the environment has caused growing attention to recycling, both using recycled materials to make products and recycling products after use. Although environmentalists may be eager to buy recycled/recyclable products, other consumers may not be so easily convinced. It may also be difficult to convince manufacturers that it is beneficial to develop green products. This paper supports a joint project between engineering and marketing disciplines to determine the cost and value of an environmentally designed product. Specifically, this paper evaluates the resources spent to manufacture a green videocassette in comparison with a standard videocassette by performing a resource analysis. This analysis estimates the cost, time and energy necessary to produce both videocassettes. This paper also compares the value of the videocassettes in terms of performance and physical attributes.

Abstract:

Current issues on economic security, preventing new challenges and threats to its strength and stability along with sustainable development of the regions require scientific background and scientific justification. New conceptual approaches to the mechanisms and methods are being searched for the purpose of the Russian Federation, as well as its constituent entities’, enterprises’ and organizations’, public and entrepreneurship activity spheres’ economic interests protection, which is reflected in the strategy of socio-economic development of the Russian regions. The article considers conceptual frameworks of sustainable ecological and economic development at a global level. It defines the concept of sustainable development in terms of economic science and the range of its problems. It also discusses debating points of experts and volunteer environmentalists concerning the transition procedure to sustainable development models in Russia.

Abstract:

Rio Tinto and the Serbian government have planned to open a lithium mine in Loznica this year. Lithium, which is key to the production of electric cars, represents a huge economic potential for the company and for Serbia, but the extraction also has significant negative environmental and social impacts. Since September 2021, Serbian environmentalists have been putting pressure on the government through mass protests, which have led to the temporary shutdown of the Jadar project. Despite this, environmentalist and increasingly antigovernment protests have continued unabated and could influence the upcoming parliamentary and presidential elections.

Abstract:

Digital technology, the defining innovation of the last half century, has deep and unaddressed insecurities at its core. This paper, authored by two prominent technologists and strategic thinkers, argues that a new form of “digital environmentalism”—marked by a re-evaluation of our relationship to technology, growth, and innovation—is the only way to fix such insecurities, and to bring meaningful change to the digital world.

Full text

Abstract:

This paper explores the tensions that emerge in neo-pagan media and practices, when they appeal not only to far-right enthusiasts but also to those with a left-leaning, environmentalist bent. New Age appropriation of Indigenous cultures and the anti-human temptations of ecofascism further complicate the picture. Ultimately, any group that follows a purity mentality, seeking deep, unadulterated roots in nature, risks nativist thinking and exclusion of those without the privilege of imagining themselves doing heroic deeds in equally imaginary, old-growth woods.
