a fantastic warm-up for the upcoming @easlce.bsky.social conference on nonhuman resistance and multispecies (in)justice: 'Join the Orca Uprising!'.
aeon.co Aeon Magazine @aeon.co · 1d
‘A historical view of our relationship with orcas reveals that they have often served as a Rorschach test for humanity’s conflicted attitudes toward the sea.’ This Essay by environmental historian Jason Colby explores how our understanding of orcas has shifted over the last century
Orcas haven’t changed, but our view of the killer whale has | Aeon Essays
Sea pandas or sadistic killers? These enigmatic creatures invite contradictory labels that say far more about us than them

How is environmental history doing in Asia? It's thriving! Read Mu Cao's beautiful account of the Asian Association for Environmental History (AAEH) conference in Japan last year.

AAEH is a biennial conference, so keep an eye out for the next one in 2027!

“As an activist, I’d sat in many planning meetings trying to figure out why our campaigns were failing. But as an academic, I’d learnt that success garners much more research than failure," writes @regulliver.bsky.social in today's post. envhistnow.com/2026/01/29/c... #envhist #envhum
Counting What counts: Preserving environmental activism history
When the flyers, posters, and participants are lost or forgotten, so too is our understanding about how our shared environmental history has been shaped by activism.
