As always, another great piece and reflections. I like your sentence - After all, we refer to nature as “Mother Nature”—that the Green Place of Many Mothers is one of the only places that sustains, harbors, and nurtures life is no coincidence. I don't think anyone else could have weaved through these complex ideas as you have done so nicely here. I liked the references you cited from Aristotle to BBC news. You gave me lots to think about. Very nice work!!!

Fantastic analysis of "Mad Max" and "Walkabout", two films that explore humanity through a return to nature. I particularly enjoyed your framing of Furiosa's journey: starting with revenge against those who wronged her, but evolving into a more ambitious quest to re-establish a lost Eden. This reflects a key mental switch, from the folly of conquest, to the wellspring of growth and cooperation that leads to a better world. Amazing work!
