The #BiodiversityCrisis has no technological solution. Indeed, it requires us to question our modernist faith that technologies can replace the functions of ecosystems. This makes it even more ideologically & emotionally challenging than #ClimateChange itself.

De fondo está la idea del pluriverso, en oposición a formas de conocimiento que entendemos universales, y que son resultado del desarrollo cultural europeo. @drjenrowsell @gehan_macleod @lisa_grocott @MiaJPerry @DianeR_Collier @Sherry_Abdulla Dr N Palacios bit.ly/3Z0Vl2f
