FE3.3 - Nature, by Design? Freakological Fallacies (Part 3)
b'Sometimes it feels like we\'re all living in a garbageosphere \\u2013 an ecosystem of trash and detritus. But despite the extent of anthropogenic impacts, life is resilient and infinitely creative.\\n\\nHyper-ecologies, novel ecosystems, freakosystems \\u2013 different names for the same thing: never-before-seen assemblies of lifeforms, born of human disturbance. These profoundly weird ecologies are persistent, and (through a certain lens) often functional.\\n\\nIn this final chapter of "Nature, by Design?", we meet again with Oliver Kellhammer and Eric Higgs to discuss what we can learn from these ruderal places, and how they can empower a new way of thinking about ecological restoration.\\n\\nThis episode is the last in a 3-part series. Before listening to this one, you may want to catch up with Part 1: Taking the Neo-Eoscenic Route [FE3.1] & Part 2: The Path to the Wilderness Lodge [FE3.2]\\n\\n\\u2013 \\u2013 \\u2013\\n\\nFor musical credits, citations, and more, go to futureecologies.net/listen/fe-3-3-nature-by-design-pt3\\n\\nSupport the show and join our Patreon community at patreon.com/futureecologies'
