Environmentality in the Household
•Download as PPT, PDF•
0 likes•229 views
This document discusses how global environmental governance affects behavior at the household level. It argues that households have become a primary site for reproducing global power structures related to environmentalism. Through eco-knowledge and conserveillance, which involve producing scientific knowledge about the environment and monitoring resource usage, individuals internalize rational management of natural resources. This constructs people as subjects relating to the environment. The presentation provides an ethnographic study of a sustainable housing rehab project to examine how global environmental governance is (re)produced and (re)created at the household level.

Forword of Jeremy Rifkin for: Greening the North - A Post-Industrial Blueprin...
This document provides a foreword for the book "Greening the North" which lays out a roadmap for sustainability in the 21st century. It summarizes that for the past several hundred years, humanity has greatly accelerated the speed at which it extracts and consumes nature's resources, exhausting them and generating waste. The book argues that wealthy Northern countries disproportionately use resources and advocates putting responsibility on them to reform economic systems and policies to make them sustainable and equitable. While not agreeing with all conclusions, the foreword praises the book for providing an important interdisciplinary framework and detailed vision for sustainability, which deserves wide discussion and analysis.
Socio-ecological systems: Moving beyond the Human Exemptionalist Paradigm
A talk given by Dr. Andrew Jones on Sep 24, 2010, in the Biology Colloquium at California State University, Fresno. He presents a historical overview of how Sociology came to discover its place within a broader ecological context and began addressing the metabolic rift resulting from human activities on this planet. He also presents the conecptual framework for analysis being developed under the new Urban Long-Term Research Area - Fresno And Clovis Ecosocial Study (ULTRA-FACES) project.
Ecology Against Capitalism by Christopher Pickering
The document argues that capitalism is incompatible with environmental sustainability for three main reasons. First, capitalism requires infinite economic growth and consumption within a finite environment. Second, capitalism prioritizes profits and private ownership over environmental planning and protection. Third, capitalism lacks mechanisms to correct unsustainable environmental practices and instead relies on endless expansion through the "treadmill of production." The only solution, according to the document, is a transition to socialism which organizes production democratically according to human and environmental needs rather than profit.
Human-Environment Interaction
The document discusses several key topics around human-environment interaction:
1. It poses questions about how humans use and change their environment and how they respond to environmental changes.
2. It explains that environmental changes can be intentional, accidental, favorable, or destructive and that humans must consider the costs and benefits of changes.
3. It outlines three ways that humans relate to the environment - through adaptation, modification, and dependence on resources.

Social Media and Haiti Disaster
The document discusses Haiti relief efforts after a disaster from multiple perspectives. It analyzes the political and economic factors influencing disaster response, noting how some treat crises as opportunities for economic gains. It also mentions the potential role of social media in relief and reconstruction efforts.
Ch 16 - ecologism (deep)
Deep Ecology rejects the anthropocentric views of shallow ecology and recognizes nature as having intrinsic value. It is based on the ideas that humans are part of the larger ecological community, that nature has moral standing, and that human interference disrupts ecosystems. Key figures like Aldo Leopold, Arne Næss, and Peter Singer argue for a land ethic, minimizing human impact, and applying a utilitarian standard of suffering to non-human animals. While utopian, Deep Ecology strives to see humans as members of rather than masters over the natural world.
Human ecology
Human Ecology is the study and assessment of the mutual interconnections between people and their environments at multiple scales and multiple time frames [1]. The subject is informed by ecological and evolutionary theory in biology and by the predominant concepts of landscape and spatial relationships in geography; but recognizes that humans have gradually achieved partial ecological and geographical dominance through their culturally given but continually changing technology and social, economic, and political arrangements. Human ecology subsumes such specialized approaches to these relationships and links as cultural ecology, political ecology, geography, ecological anthropology, environmental sociology, environmental economics, environmental psychology, and environmental history [2].

Environmentalism
Environmentalism arose in response to severe environmental problems like air pollution, depletion of resources, and climate change. It gained prominence in the 1970s with conferences like the 1972 UN Conference on the Environment. In India, environmentalism originated from movements like Chipko that sought to protect local communities' access to resources. Indian environmentalism has faced criticism for being agents of Western imperialism but has brought awareness to India's deteriorating environment and its impacts.

It discusses Kemp's background and research interests, which include environmental policy, clean technology, societal transformations, and governance for sustainable development. It also summarizes some of the projects Kemp is involved in, including sustainable mobility, reflexive governance, environmental technology assessment, and transition management. Finally, it provides overviews of some of the key topics and frameworks in Kemp's research, such as the economy-environment relationship, three economic truths about the environment, debates around sustainable development, environment and poverty, and new thinking about how the environment is conceptualized.
Ecology & conservation powerpoint
Ecosystems ecology studies the links between organisms and their physical environment within the context of the Earth system. Ecosystems are biotic communities and their associated physical environments in a specific place. Ecosystems are the basis for social and economic development but the gradual loss of ecological resilience can lead to unexpected collapse, so building resilience is necessary in view of global change. Adaptive theory is derived from ecosystem dynamics and focuses on processes of destruction and reorganization. How ecosystems respond to change depends on their potential to change, degree of connectedness, and resilience to shocks. Positive and negative feedback loops regulate ecosystem dynamics.
Policy and political engagement: Entanglement? Responsibility? Opportunity?
This document discusses the potential role of anthropology and anthropologists in climate policy and political discussions. It argues that anthropologists are uniquely positioned to address the human dimensions of climate change due to their holistic perspective spanning various temporal and social scales. While scholarly organizations face disadvantages in directly influencing policy, the document outlines several strategies anthropologists could employ, including developing coalitions, educating the public, networking with other experts, and utilizing insider connections. It emphasizes the responsibility of anthropologists to share knowledge about climate change and its human impacts.
Man and his environment 2
This document discusses environmental philosophy and humanity's relationship with the environment. It outlines three major views on this relationship: anthropocentrism, which sees nature as existing for human use; biocentrism, which believes all organisms have inherent value; and ecocentrism, which views humanity as part of the greater biological system. The document also discusses principles of sustainability like environmental integrity and economic efficiency, arguing we must use resources prudently to conserve them for future generations. Finally, it identifies some human actions that do and do not show care for the environment.
Deepecology
This document provides a summary of the book "Deep Ecology: Living as if Nature Mattered" by Bill Devall and George Sessions. It discusses key concepts in the book such as the need for both individual and collective transformation towards more sustainable societies. It also discusses the "Gaia hypothesis" which views the Earth as a self-regulating system and emphasizes understanding and preserving nature's intrinsic order. The summary concludes by explaining that the book aims to outline the spiritual components of green movements and how the concept of "deep ecology" was coined to describe a deeper, more spiritual approach to nature exemplified by thinkers like Rachel Carson and Aldo Leopold.
Bp3
This document provides an overview of the relationship between environmental degradation and social integration. It discusses how social factors can influence the environment through changes in population, markets, land tenure systems, and social inequities. Environmental degradation then impacts societies through effects on health, livelihoods, and resources people depend on. Individual and collective responses to environmental changes can transform social structures over time. The document reviews policy approaches to addressing degradation and argues for holistic strategies that consider social and environmental dynamics in specific contexts.
Population ecology and human impact
This document discusses key concepts in population ecology, including:
- Population is defined as all individuals of a species living in an area. Demography is the statistical study of populations.
- Population size, density, distribution, and changes over time are important to study. Populations can experience exponential or logistic growth depending on available resources.
- Survivorship curves (Type I, II, III) describe mortality patterns. Reproductive strategies also influence population growth.
- Human population growth has increased due to improved health and technology, though uncontrolled growth risks environmental damage.

Mary mellor, an eco feminist proposal, nlr 116 117, march june 2019
This document summarizes Mary Mellor's proposal for an eco-feminist model of "sufficiency provisioning" as an alternative economic strategy. The key points are:
1) Current economic models and green strategies fail to recognize the essential role of unpaid reproductive labor, mainly done by women, that sustains both human and environmental life.
2) An eco-feminist model of "sufficiency provisioning" would make meeting basic human needs like housing, food, and care for all within environmental limits the top priority, guided by principles of social justice and sustainability.
3) Democratizing the money system could help transition to this model by supporting more localized, cooperative production to meet needs rather than
Bas04 flexibility
This document discusses the importance of flexibility and adaptability for civilization. It argues that civilizations must accommodate diversity, unpredictability, and environmental changes to survive. Flexibility allows civilizations to adapt to shifting conditions rather than resisting change. Planning methods also need flexibility to handle dynamic natural and social systems. The document provides examples of how northern regions historically adapted flexibly to harsh climates through diverse livelihoods. It advocates for flexible, collaborative, mosaic-style planning to create resilient regions that can respond and adapt to challenges.

The relationship of ecology with population dynamic
Population ecology deals with how population size and structure change over time due to births, deaths, immigration and emigration. It studies the interactions between organisms and their environment at the population level. Ecology can be divided into biotic and abiotic components, with biotic factors being living things that interact with organisms and abiotic factors being non-living environmental components like temperature, soil and water. Population dynamics are influenced by the rates of births, deaths, immigration and emigration within a population.
Environmental Ethics
This chapter discusses different environmental worldviews and approaches to environmental ethics. It presents several philosophies for determining what is right and wrong from an environmental perspective, such as utilitarianism which evaluates based on the greatest good, and biocentrism which views all life as intrinsically valuable. It also outlines various worldviews including viewing humans as stewards of the planet versus being in charge of managing Earth. The chapter concludes by discussing the need for environmentally literate citizens to build a more sustainable society through understanding our interactions with nature and effective problem solving approaches.
None Dare Call It Hubris: The Limits of Knowledge
The document discusses the limits of human knowledge and ability in the face of complex global challenges. It argues that while scientific and technological progress has enabled growth, it has also caused environmental damage and issues that transcend individual interests. To address problems like climate change, new approaches are needed that integrate knowledge across disciplines and find ways to cooperate rather than compete. Current limits include those of individuals, sociobiology, socioeconomics, technology, and philosophy. New kinds of thinking are required to develop knowledge sensitive to these boundary conditions and foster planetary stewardship.
The role of trees in sustaining soil productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa
Trees can help address global challenges like climate change, water scarcity, food insecurity, and land degradation. In sub-Saharan Africa, trees may help break the cycle of poverty through agroforestry. The document discusses how 19th century concerns about depleted soils led to fertilizers addressing food needs in the 20th century. However, issues remain like water scarcity, land degradation, and climate change impacts. Agroforestry that matches trees to household and ecosystem needs has potential to improve livelihoods and sustainability in sub-Saharan Africa if adopted widely.
Biophilic cities by rohayah
This document provides an overview of a presentation on biophilic cities and integrating nature into urban design. It discusses the theoretical basis for combining biophilic and urban design concepts. Some key points include:
- Biophilia refers to humans' innate attraction to nature and living processes. Biophilic design aims to incorporate natural elements and inspire connections to nature in the built environment.
- Several principles of biophilic design are discussed, including providing access to nature in cities through urban forests and gardens.
- The presentation examines how place attachment and sense of place can be strengthened by connecting culture, history and ecology in urban design.
- Biophilic urban design approaches are applied at different scales from individual
Connections in nature
This document discusses ecosystems and the interconnected relationships between organisms within ecosystems. It describes how ecosystems can vary in size but generally consist of producers, consumers, and decomposers that interact with one another and are linked to non-living elements. The document also addresses how human activities like overfishing, pollution, and deforestation have disrupted ecosystem balances and warns that if human impacts continue to worsen, populations may dwindle or overpopulate.

The Field Of Ecology And Diversity
This document discusses several key aspects of ecology and diversity. It explains that ecology and diversity both focus on measurable properties like types, importance, and unevenness. In ecology, diversity is viewed statistically by some and as number of species by others. All relationships in ecology are inversely related to diversity. Identifying populations is important for defining diversity and ecology. Ecology involves understanding an organism's interrelationships with its environment, and how populations can diversify over time in response to changes. Diversity is also relevant to attaining multiculturalism in school populations.

This document provides an introduction to environmental science and environmental education. It discusses how humans now have the power to impact the environment through resource extraction, waste production, and modification of the natural world in ways that threaten both human and other species' existence. It also notes that while solutions to environmental problems are understood, implementing them faces social, economic, and political challenges. The document defines key terms like environment, environmental science, ecology, and sustainable civilization. It also outlines the scientific method and different levels of ecological organization.

Essay on Environmental Ethics
The essence of permaculture.
Permaculture is a design system for creating sustainable human settlements. It is based on three ethics of care for the Earth, care for people, and fair share. The document outlines 12 principles of permaculture design taken from nature, including observe and interact, catch and store energy, obtain a yield, apply self-regulation and accept feedback, use and value renewable resources, produce no waste, design from patterns to details, integrate rather than segregate, use small and slow solutions, use and value diversity, use edges and value the marginal, and creatively use and respond to change. Permaculture is a global movement that applies these principles to integrate domains like land, water, energy, housing, and community to support humanity
Interdisciplinary research frontiers of anthropology for climate change
American Anthropological Association (AAA) published a paper on climate change to give anthropologists and anthropology a guideline on how they should or can approach climate change where there strengths can be used best.
This presentation is based on the sixth chapter of that publication which was titled "Interdisciplinary Research Frontiers".

This are the presentations from event From 5 to 75 lifelong learning in a circular economy, focusing on the topic of circular economy in education
David holmgren essence of permaculture
Permaculture is a design system that aims to integrate human settlements and agriculture into sustainable ecosystems modeled after natural ecologies. It takes a holistic approach, applying ethics and design principles to seven domains including land stewardship, built environment, community, and economics. The goal is to meet human needs through renewable resources by focusing on regenerative systems that conserve energy, water, and biodiversity. Permaculture emphasizes observing natural patterns and replicating them to create self-sustaining landscapes and communities. It has spread globally through the Permaculture Design Course and grassroots networks, though faces challenges from entrenched political and economic powers invested in the status quo.
13LINKING CLIMATE ACTION TOLOCAL KNOWLEDGE AND PRACTICE
This document summarizes an anthropological study examining climate action efforts in two diverse Chicago neighborhoods - South Chicago and North Kenwood/Oakland. The Field Museum conducted ethnographic research in these neighborhoods to understand sociocultural viewpoints on climate change and identify opportunities to engage residents in the city's climate action plan. The research found that while climate change may not be a top concern, there are ways to promote carbon reduction strategies by linking them to issues like environmental health, energy efficiency, and job creation that communities do care about. The research aims to help make climate action more relevant and effective at the local level.

‘The point is to learn, how does one community start and scale out. Because the best
impact starts with individuals on a small level and grows out.’
Community Leader, North Kenwood/Oakland
neighborhood, Chicago
Over the past decade, environmental anthropologists have increasingly argued for the
importance of inserting anthropological arguments into debates on climate change
(Magistro 2001, Human Organization 2003, Crate and Nuttall 2009, Baer and Singer
2008). In a recent volume, Anthropology and Climate Change: From Encounters to
Actions, Crate and Nuttall (2009) lay out at least three areas in need of new research
that focus on human-environment relationships: 1) anthropology’s role in exploring
the cultural implications of climate change, 2) facilitating collaborative, community-
based projects focused on mitigation and adaptation, and 3) developing culturally-
sensitive strategies for communicating climate change to diverse audiences. However,
few studies have examined climate change or climate action efforts in diverse urban
areas or even in the United States (Crate 2008).
This chapter presents ongoing applied ethnographic research being led by The
Field Museum’s division of Environment, Culture, and Conservation (ECCo) to
understand sociocultural viewpoints on climate change in Chicago’s diverse neigh-
borhoods (The Field Museum 2009, 2010a, 2010b). This research was commissioned
by the City of Chicago Department of Environment (DOE) to help them develop
locally relevant communication strategies and programs for engaging diverse com-
munities in the Chicago Climate Action Plan (CCAP). Launched by the City of
Chicago in October 2008, the CCAP aims to reduce carbon emissions to 25 per cent
below 1990 levels by 2020 and 80 per cent by 2050 by implementing five strategies
focused on energy efficiency in buildings, clean and renewable energy, improved
transportation options, waste reduction, and adaptation (City of Chicago 2008).

To date, The Field Museum has completed studies in five communities (three of
which are available on the Web at: http://fieldmuseum.org/explore/department/
ecco/engaging-chicago-communities-climate-action), and we are now in the midst
of doing five more after which the project will be complete. This chapter reports on
the results of our first two studies, in the South Chicago and North Kenwood-

Guiding the Emergence of Humanity's Future
This document is a synthesis of inquiry that incorporates ideas and inspiration from many people. It grew out of conversations with Federico Bellone, Eduard Müller, Juan Sostheim, Melina Angel, Pramod Parajuli, Luis Camargo, Daniel Wahl, Stuart Cowan, and several others. What I learned from this diverse dialogue—accompanied by extensive reading—is that pedagogy is the most important thing to get right for any educational initiative that seeks to cultivate bioregional regeneration.
Pedagogy refers to the many ways of learning and how people evolve in their thoughts, feelings, actions, and social arrangements. It is a multifaceted concept that draws attention to capacities for cooperation, ability to trust others, perspective-taking, and a lot more that must be carefully addressed (and elegantly integrated) in the design of education programs. Pedagogy is often framed as a way to teach a particular concept or subject. I prefer to turn this around and employ it as a design perspective for how to assist the learning process, even if no teacher happens to be involved.
Shared here are some of the key pedagogical insights and thematic elements that have arisen so far in this inquiry. This learning journey is far from complete and will continue well after these words are written to the page. It is my earnest belief that Bioregional Regenerative Training Centers must emerge all over the world as integrative programs that help spread the practices and mindsets for regeneration of human communities and the ecosystems on which they depend for their survival.
Tools for Culture Design:
This document summarizes Joe Brewer's argument for an emerging field called "culture design" aimed at intentionally guiding cultural evolution and social change. Brewer argues that humanity now faces unprecedented global risks that require new approaches to cultural change that integrate insights from complexity research, cognitive science, and cultural evolution. As an example, he discusses how culture design could help safeguard the critical Himalayan water supply on which billions depend by developing governance frameworks, understanding social dynamics, and guiding cultural change over multiple decades. Overall, the document makes the case that a grand synthesis is needed to integrate existing knowledge and practices from diverse fields in order to enable intentional social and cultural transformation at large scales.
Civic Ecology, Greening in the Red Zone, & Urban Environmental Stewarship
Civic ecology is the study of interactions between community environmental stewardship, education, culture/institutions, and ecosystem services. It examines how stewardship practices emerge in "broken places" due to people's love of life and places. Ten principles of civic ecology are described, including how practices start locally and expand through partnerships while being resilient to chaos/renewal. The document discusses conceptualizing stewardship over space and time, noting it involves social mechanisms behind management practices based on local ecological knowledge. It explores how stewardship evolves through resilience, learning from disturbances. Key mechanisms of civic ecology identified are urgent biophilia, restorative topophilia, memorialization, rituals, and discourses that shape recovery.
The Importance Of Environmental Education
The document discusses the importance of environmental education for children. It states that educating youth about environmental issues like climate change, deforestation, and pollution is crucial so they can help solve problems and protect the future of the Earth. Environmental education aims to develop awareness, knowledge, positive attitudes, skills, and participation regarding environmental protection. It is an important topic that should be integrated into curriculums at all grade levels to nurture appreciation for the environment.
Human ecology home work_society.18.3.2011
Professor Mauri Ahlberg gave a keynote lecture on human ecology, sustainable living, and the importance of nature. He discussed how home refers to relationships more than physical structures, and emphasized learning through inquiry and dialogue. Ahlberg believes cultivating gratitude, focusing on nature, and sharing knowledge openly can promote well-being and bring people together.
Stewardship Design Principles
This document discusses stewardship design principles inspired by living systems. It begins by explaining key characteristics of open living systems, such as being purposeful, adaptive, self-regulating, and able to achieve the same ends from different starting points. It then discusses five principles for stewardship design: balance, interdependence, regeneration, diversity, and succession. Each principle is examined through the lens of natural ecosystems and how it can be applied to human systems and design. The document advocates applying these principles iteratively to foster more resilient futures that are aligned with natural systems.

1. The document discusses the multidisciplinary nature of environmental studies, including its scope and importance.
2. It covers the key components of the environment, as well as the various disciplines that contribute to environmental science like biology, physics, social sciences, and more.
3. Sustainable development is introduced as development that meets current needs without compromising future generations, balancing economic, environmental and social factors.
W2 Susdev
The document discusses the history and key concepts of sustainable development:
1. The Brundtland Commission in 1983 first proposed strategies for sustainable development, defining it as development that meets present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs.
2. Major UN conferences on sustainable development include the 1992 Rio Earth Summit that produced agreements like Agenda 21 and the UNFCCC.
3. Sustainable development involves balancing social, economic, and environmental concerns, and requires ongoing efforts across many sectors of society.
