Toward Ecosophy

This is fascinating to consider, thank you for this. I’ve just started mulling over whether the scientific approach of measuring everything is a sort of plunder — demanding exchangeable “data” from everything everywhere, much like imperial tribute in the form of taxes. Now we’re so drunk on an abundance of this exotic data, we are entirely disconnected from any meaning it might have in its own context, and we’ve become numb to any meaningful, intuitive connection with our own context. For example, people who assume they’re in need of treatment because tests came back with x result, despite the fact they have no symptoms and are getting along just fine otherwise. It’s probably time to demand less from “out there” and figure out how to do best with what we have *right here*. Lots to meditate on here, thank you.
