Jeremy Narby: Beyond the Anthropo-Scene | Bioneers 2017

The renowned “anthropologist under Amazonian influence” and indigenous rights activist Jeremy Narby, author of such classics as The Cosmic Serpent and Intelligence in Nature, considers the intelligence of living beings and wrestles with his own culture’s anthropocentric concepts. In his view, constantly affirming the centrality of humans gets in the way of respectful living in the biosphere. Rethinking human-centered concepts such as “nature” and “anthropocene” can cast light on our relationship with the living world. Because the words we use influence how we think, we gain from examining them with care.
Introduction by J.P. Harpignies, Bioneers Associate Producer.
This speech was given at the 2017 National Bioneers Conference.
Since 1990, Bioneers has acted as a fertile hub of social and scientific innovators with practical and visionary solutions for the world's most pressing environmental and social challenges.

    Christianity did this. We are man obsessed because Christianity says that man and nature are separate, and man is the only one made in Gods image.

    No, your close mindedness is foolish. Don’t bash things you cant comprehend and stop judging others

    One sentence throwing away 1000s of years of indigenous intelligence.
