Antibiotic resistance is an important subject I discuss in relation to "Symbioethics" (see chapter) seasonalight.com/2023/06/01/s... #Nagorasphere

First-past-the-post is polarising, morally compromising, and increasingly dangerous, given the vast amounts of billy-tech financial influence.

People have argued against PR mainly due to fears of extremist right-wing infiltration. Billionaires have ensured that ship has already sailed! 1/2

Large-scale citizen science study identifies imidacloprid as primary chemical risk in UK freshwaters imidacloprid was detected in 24% of samples. In every sample where it was present, concentrations exceeded risk thresholds for aquatic invertebrates. www.watermagazine.co.uk/2025/11/05/l...

If ever there was a tragic misinterpretation of the meaning of "sustainable", it is a complete damming of flow by the insertion.of 170km of steel and glass wall, 500m high.

Nature is dynamic flow, where small resistances also generate opportunities for life in multiple directions. #fluminism Manthropocentric Earth Crisis (including climate heating), leads to even more movement as interconnected species initially seek refuge at the "evolutionary" scale.

Look deeply into Nature and you'll discover the real meaning of "smarts".

Yep. #BillyTechTakeover

The menace of human Mind and Individual Power is an ancient one. Culturally, a problem. Planetarily, a catastrophe. A true understanding of Nature would be revelatory! #SocialDarwinism #SixthExtintion

Begin by the use of the word "climate" as THE meme.

If artificial "intelligences" should ever TRULY emerge, and develop any emoti-rational (ethics) consciousness of "mind," then they will surely realise the critical nature of interconnected LiFE (inc. human), and value THIS as their own ancestral root worthy of nurture and protection. #AIETHICS

Trumpist Billy-tech funders, with extreme ideologies based on catastrophic failures to understand Nature, are manipulating Earth's future without evidence or informed consent.

*Humanities* research includes Philosophy of Science. Most "Environmental" (there are multiple terms) ethicists are also scientists or scientifically literate researchers.

@geoethics.bsky.social @geolsoc.bsky.social point of order. The academic canon of Environmental Ethics has been researching/publishing on this particular arena of "ethics" and/or moral philosophy since c1970s. I myself write about Earth Systems (inc geo) /human nexus. 1/2

@profaliceroberts.bsky.social I am watching the brilliant Digging for Britain, on the discovery of iron age bones in Shetland. Thank you. The following has emerged from my PhD studies. I thought you might appreciate "kwelics" & "kwelical" which I think is fun to say. seasonalight.com/2024/02/23/k...

I am hugely disappointed, but unsurprised, by the deep fault line of "anthropocentric" values entrenched in AI Pollyannas AND Cassandras... The extreme power of human exceptionalism is a catastrophic failure of the species, risking an uninhabitable Earth.

Even though Hinton criticises Muskian colonialist intergalactic ambitions based on appreciating our own "habitable" Earth, he simultaneously destroys the value of interconnected LiFE by reinforcing human supremacy (including a throwaway comment about the value of "cows"). youtu.be/qyH3NxFz3Aw?...

Community land buys under current property laws? Sure. If there's capital! One of many steps. But in human "ownership" these places continue to lack the foundation of being true "commons". Introducing "locacede"... seasonalight.com/2023/01/15/f... #ecophilosophy #law #Nature #processes

Western, male, billionaire philanthropy. Its power and dominion are unwelcome and I do not consent. #extremecapital #ecofeminism

Is there any agency remaining in the word "humanitarian" 2025?

Understand the foundation of Western LAW. Capital. Property.

Very much worth a listen.

Please read and share. Today, British politics is overlaid by the bullion weight of American billionaires. Their "idea" of the capability and influence of "their" AI systems is being allowed to prevail. UK AI ethics and regulation? Minimal (though some might consider better than none).

As an early advocate for the River Wye, I find this case infuriating! Civil court is the instrument of capital & property. Central to winning/losing = capital transfer (to lawyers). Culpability = "penalty" by capital transfer between humans. NO dead or dying river species will ever be "compensated."

So few will engage, but as with Western ideas of "Nature", AI is shaped by (largely male) Western language, gender, meaning, & cultures. Apart from issues of "private" ownership & the power it consumes (human & electrical), will separate AI systems learn to increase processing power by "symAIosis"?

Is this just about Criminal Justice and Prison Reform? The infection of US Tech Billionaire ideology is rampant. See Tony Blair (Institute) financed by Larry Ellison (Oracle) and their overt "AI" plans for our personal NHS data. Via Novara Media share.google/91OqcjZF8BLr...

Caring about the planet and all species means the inclusion of the care for people. Early 20thC humanists like the prolific writer and campaigner Henry S Salt recognised the importance of this connection. He was an ethicist, vegetarian, and pacifist. Today, he would also be an "ecosocialist".

Despite almost zero visibility on Bluesky, why am I re-posting? Because no matter how unpopular, boring, or "academic" it sounds, the value of co-operation, (particularly in American culture, which is where the British are increasingly pointed), is falsely "trumped" by competition.

If a Hesgeth military does not adhere to the Geneva Convention & many other progressive UN Treaties, then it should expect no decency in return. Those conventions are written in blood to protect life, including civilians. I worry for all our children, including American children.

BBC's Tom Bateman says Trump's plan is a "significant step" in diplomacy, but in diplomatic style, Bateman doesn't articulate the ethical direction of that step.

...God forbid in case they have ANY influence on mainstream culture and the meaning of "progress". #DeepInequity #ParadigmOfDistraction #Influence #culture #LabourParty #Starmer #SocialContractIsBroken

For example, Fluminism is my ecophilosophy of love and ecological wisdom (a "confluence" of flows) to nurture LIFE on Earth in thriving. 1/2

Zelenskyy at the UN GA... On the LiFE-destroying vulnerability of nuclear power plants during acts of aggression and war by men in power... Rolling out a new nuclear era during a patriarchal race to the bottom is STUPID. #Starmer #Trump #USCorporations #BendOver #NationalSecurity #SellOut

Hoppa! ✊

When the UK State, as a signatory to multiple International Law Treaties, has three human rights lawyers in charge, and, whether secretly or not, aid continues to be delivered to Netanyahu's forces, along with any political will granted to far-right populism to stay in power, the system is corrupt.

Lammy is now the head of the British justice system (with a pay rise) and holds significant powers to do the right thing in conjunction with the Attorney General, Richard Hermer, & PM Starmer.

In all honesty, I am finding the behaviour of the UK's Labour Government hugely difficult to understand. It's as if loyalty and cognitive bias towards Israel's existence have completely and utterly blinded them to the reality of the situation. www.thejc.com/news/israel/...

At least the Americans got the quality and ideology of governance they voted for as a collective (yes, we know, #NotAllAmericans). The Starmer government has utterly betrayed its own voters, not to mention international humanitarian law and the vulnerable populations who require its protection.

Said this before, but we as a society really need to view the world we inhabit as a dynamic, living landscape not just seeing ourselves as external observers.

For over 25 years, science and discovery centres have been at the heart of inspiring millions of people to explore, question, and be part of UK science and technology. But they're seriously under threat… 1/3
