If my decomposing carcass helps nourish the roots of a juniper tree or the wings of a vulture—that is immortality enough for me. And as much as anyone deserves.

Because the territory of Palestine is a contested space the conflict over land and water is shown to be one of the main drivers behind land use and labour practices and the development and implementation of agricultural technology in Israel/Palestine. [...]
One aspect of agricultural development in Israel is that there exists the imperative for extensification along with intensification, due to security needs. This refers to increasing the area under cultivation and pursuing agriculture in peripheral areas (the desert, the north) regardless of the economic cost as a means of claiming, occupying and in the process defending territory under dispute. In Israel, this is called «creating facts on the ground.» Thus, rather than accepting water scarcity as an ecological constraint, Israeli agriculture has turned to technological fixes which permit agricultural activity at any cost. This need to overcome water supply limitations in the face of the «agricultural imperative» has contributed to a range of technological innovations regarding water use – including drip irrigation, the reclamation and reuse of wastewater, cloud seeding and large-scale desalination. This has enabled the country to continue and expand agricultural production despite growing water scarcity.
On the Palestinian side we see how agriculture has responded to politically created water and land scarcity. After the occupation (1967), agriculture in the West Bank is reshaped in large part through Israel´s direct and indirect control of labour, land and access to water so as to complement and discourage competition with the Israeli market. The various mechanisms of control exerted can be defined as environmental racism or environmental injustice, the inequitable distribution of environmental burdens and access to environmental goods (Martínez-Alier, 2002), whereby valuable ecological resources are transferred to Israel and environmental bads such as pollution from the settlements are externalized onto the occupied territories (OPT). Agriculture in the West Bank is conditioned through a series of coping strategies as a response to these pressures.

“We need an extreme movement because what is happening to animals is so extreme. Some misinformed people claim that animal rights activists are terrorists, but these people are simply ignorant of who the real terrorists are - the companies and industries that torture literally billions of animals each year.”
— River Phoenix (The Animals Voice Magazine - 1989)

"[Another type of red flags to avoid in the alterhuman/nonhuman communities are] Patterns of promoting having a poor relationship with humanity and/or nonhumanity to an unhealthy degree or insisting one must have a certain attitude towards humanity/nonhumanity to be alterhuman. [For example:]
"Frequent posting that humans as a whole are irredeemable, inherently evil, or unnatural. Especially misanthropy posting that has an ecofascist angle to it or seems like they may genuinely commit a crime due to their hatred of humanity.
"Insistence that one must hate or pity humans to be alterhuman.
"Insistence that one ‘must accept their humanity’ to a level dictated by that person, and that there is something inherently wrong with choosing not to identify as a human at all.
"Encouraging others to ignore consensus reality regarding the base needs and limits of a recognized human body. (ex- Claiming that eating a fully meat diet with no supplements won’t give you scurvy because you are a Physically Identified Nonhuman)
"Encouraging hatred of having a human body in people who otherwise tolerate it.
"Claiming that their alterhuman identity makes them inherently better than others."
- Excerpt from "Safety in Alterhuman Spaces," a document by the Dragonheart Collective, page 16. You can read the whole document here (PDF).

The sea doesn’t look like a graveyard; it’s lively, joyous, and sparkling. It changes its finery in order to please the sky, soaring above. Sometimes it dresses in blue, sometimes in green, and sometimes in gray. It only dresses in black when the winds blow up from the lands to the south where the climate is too hot. Its waves then swell and heave, revealing their teeth of foam.
- Maryse Condé, The Gospel According to the New World

"You grow up readin' about pirates and cowboys and spacemen and stuff, and jus' when you think the world's all full of amazin' things, they tell you it's really all dead whales and chopped-down forests and nuclear waste hangin' about for millions of years."
Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman, Good Omens
