Whoa! 👉 Our new perspectives paper just went online!

Introducing an important new paradigm: the notion of #Earth regulating "planetary commons" - a substantial and critical framing for building global governance fit for the #Anthropocene.

"Planetary Commons" are #Earth systems on nation's territories, under sovereignty and ownership - but maintaining them is vital for keeping Earth stable. How does humanity govern them? 🌏🌎🌍

More tomorrow!

Why come up with the Nature/Humanity duality in the first place? It doesn't work here. If people die because of natural disasters, people are involved, so it's not just a natural.
We are always involved in this #anthropocene anyway.
