No, no, but even if you just adapt slightly that perspective, everything makes a lot more sense, I think.
Yeah, we are the world.
If you are an extension of your environment, then you're not causing harm to the natural world.
You're causing harm to your world.
That's what Monty would say.
That's why he doesn't like rewilding because it's saying it's removing our ability to create a more harmonious natural world, which involves us engaging with it first.
Like rewilding is the practice of, rewilding is the practice of leaving land to do its own thing without human intervention, which I definitely think has some grounds.
I mean, I don't, I'm not an expert in this, but I know what Monty said, which is that
There's no shame in a human being moving into an environment, looking, learning and becoming part of it and then implementing changes with our skill set, which is observation, imagination, all the other things, and then creating a harmonious thing.
There could be a weed in that garden.
There could be like an insect infestation in a real wilding environment, which damages it.

You know, it was like, how are you here?
How are you here and where's everything else?
