Weekly transmissions from [ Adbusters ]( [link removed] ), the journal of the mental environment  
 
"For years," writes Robert Macfarlane, "Lake Erie — the southernmost of the Great Lakes — has been in ecological crisis. ... Appalled by the lake’s degradation, and exhausted by state and federal failures to improve Erie’s health, in December 2018 Toledo City councillors drew up an extraordinary document: an emergency 'bill of rights' for Lake Erie. At the bill’s heart was a radical proposition: that the 'Lake Erie ecosystem' should be granted legal personhood." This is the radical new animism "by which writers, scholars, lawyers, and politicians are radically reassessing our place in the natural world." It’s getting dark, but it's not there yet.

"Look up on a cloudless night and you might see the light from a star thousands of trillions of miles away, or pick out the craters left by asteroid strikes on the moon’s face. Look down and your sight stops at topsoil, tarmac, toe. I have rarely felt as far from the human realm as when only ten yards below it, caught in the shining jaws of a limestone bedding plane first formed on the floor of an ancient sea." — Robert Macfarlane   [ Read Article ]( [link removed] )

If you’re under thirty, you’re all but guaranteed to witness it." Welcome to the Age of Melancholy.   [ Read this Mind Journey ]( [link removed] )
