Oh, our human politics. So earnest and well intentioned and even quite correct. But in the end such disputes are all human-centered and that focus is what got us in the climate crisis we face now and the sixth extinction of millions of our fellow species. I don't say such issues are trivial or not useful but I urge advocates to decouple their advocacy or at least add to it, a concern for the. bighorn sheep and countless other creatures that grace our beautiful deserts. Human politics may come and go- we will always be at war with ourselves -but the damage we do the nonhuman world may never be repairable.
