World History EncyclopediaThe state of nature is an idea which became especially popular with certain philosophers during the Enlightenment, notably Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), John Locke (1632-1704), and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778). #History #StateOfNature #Philosophy #HistoryFacts https://www.worldhistory.org/State_of_Nature/
Nigel Pugh (he/him/they)@Sbectol I would disagree, to care for a sustaining planet, you need an emotional attachment to nature. Never have we been so detached form it. Hence the #StateOfNature and the collapse of a life as we currently know it sustaining planet.

The #SycamoreGap #tree really sad to hear about this.
1. for the loss of an iconic tree, one of too many!
2. for what was going on in this 16 year olds life to drive their action.
3. the utter human disconnect from the intrinsic value of a fully functioning natural environment.
Suprise, the new #StateOfNature report tells us we’re one of the most nature depleted countries in the world!
#Ecoliteracy - reverse an obsession with a neat & tidy outdoor environment, & its wilful destruction.

This is on top of centuries of biodiversity loss driven by human activity, and #Scotland is now one of the most #nature depleted countries in the world. #climatechange #climate #climatecrisis

WIST Quotations moves again!A quotation from Russell, Bertrand:
«««««
I remember a man whom I knew when I was young, who was small, anaemic, and timid, but used to proclaim himself an anarchist. He never realised that his whole existence depended upon police protection, or that in a world without government he would be robbed of all his possessions and left to starve.
