It is really good to check historical case studies, too! Like the 19th century feather fashions. The campaign to eliminate the feather trade by the early @rspb.bsky.social and others was eventually successful and driven by 5 key arguments, most imporantly relational values: doi.org/10.1002/pan3...

I explored the story of the @rspb.bsky.social campaign against feather fashions in detail doi.org/10.1002/pan3...
Feather fashions involved using not only feathers but also wings, skins, heads and whole bodies. And they were not limited to egret feathers, but involved all species of birds!

My review of 'Nature needs you' by @hannahbournetaylor.bsky.social has just been published in Environmental Values.
While the #TheFeatherSpeech campaign on #swiftbricks remains at a stalemate, you can read here why I consider Hannah's book so important.

Broadening the debate on nature-based solutions and biodiversity net gain to cover non-biological components and nonhuman interests would help to make human-built infrastructure less detrimental to nonhuman beings.

Broader exposure to arguments regarding nature’s representation and agency, particularly those rooted in non-Western and non-anthropocentric worldviews and value systems, might increase the opportunities to include them in political debates.
