Amidst escalating global environmental crises, understanding the psychological factors driving pro-environmental action is crucial. We argue that stewarding the Earth System away from instability requires an embrace of expansive perspectives that drive effective action. Past perspectives underscore the importance of ‘expansiveness’ for prosocial be...
This article explores the translocal hybrid activism surrounding two demonstrations triggered by a violent altercation between antifascists and neo‐Nazis in Malmö in March 2014. It maps the appearance and spread of the hashtag that underpinned this activism: #KämpaShowan. It also considers how the hashtag was articulated, adopted and adapted by dif...

... The threat of unintended consequences of chemicals and manufactured goods and services on human and ecosystem health has been a longstanding issue and ongoing priority for M� aori, the Indigenous Peoples of New Zealand (Hikuroa et al., 2011;McNeill, 2017;Parsons et al., 2021;Pauling & Ataria, 2010;Waitangi Tribunal, 1983). Unfortunately, this is a shared experience with other Indigenous peoples globally (Fern� andez-Llamazares et al., 2020;Noble et al., 2016;Sandlos & Keeling, 2016;Snodgrass, 2013). At the core of these concerns are Indigenous environmental philosophies and ethics that center humans as a part of the environment and whose praxis reflects obligations of care, respect, and reciprocity towards the environment to continue to derive well-being from it (Ataria et al., 2023;Kawharu, 2000;Roberts et al., 1995). ...
Chemicals play an important role in maintaining our quality of life. Unfortunately, inappropriate chemicals and waste management result in the accumulation of contaminants in our environment that pose a risk to exposed biota and humans. Being cognizant of Indigenous knowledge and values within the management of chemicals and waste represent key components of environmental justice, but they are not being included in current global programs. Here, we describe the process leading to the development of an independent and nonpartisan national strategy to manage emerging contaminants in New Zealand that is reflective of Māori cultural perspectives. An inclusive partnership-based approach was used to capture a broad selection of views and perspectives to provide opportunities to engage with representatives from a range of sectors including scientists, members of the wider community, and Māori partners for the development of the strategy. A series of workshops was held over several years that helped refine the strategy document to ensure that it was fit for purpose with a clear implementation pathway to maximize uptake and achieve the inspirational shared vision. This initiative highlighted the need to invest significant time and effort up front to develop strong relationships across sectors required for success. All parties involved must operate with respect to ensure that advantages and reciprocity of all knowledge systems are recognized and valued to achieve objectives for chemical sustainability.
Over the last five decades, the total area cultivated with sugarcane in Colombia has increased by 280%. The consolidation of the sugarcane agroindustrial cluster has been based on a process of modernization that has included the aerial spraying of more than 783,442 kg of glyphosate since 2001. The resulting increase in productivity for the sugar mills has been accompanied by what we refer to as “toxic dispossession” of ethnic communities in the Alto Cauca region. This article presents a critical examination of modern-day agroindustrial activities, particularly those pertaining to the chemical maturation of sugarcane, and provides evidence for the environmental and social damage that the industry has generated for rural ethnic communities, whose well-being, livelihoods and traditional territories have deteriorated rapidly.
