Science only views the world through the Cartesian division of subjects and objects and makes the world a calculable resource of objects that capitalism can exploit. The two work together. If we still saw the mystery and divine in nature, maybe we wouldn’t disrespect it so much.

There are different types of wonder and beauty. Mostly for scientists though, they find things interesting and that’s fine. But, it’s different than the way an artist would portray it, or a poet.

You're getting downvoted but indigenous people in, say, Canada and Australia tend to be the staunchest pro-environment advocates so there's merit to this idea.
