In the face of the increasingly evident ecosocial collapse, how important is the emergence of new protection paradigms such as biocultures or climate and ecosocial justice? How urgent is the promotion of alternative development models that unify culture and nature? As Yayo Herrero observes, “we are nature, and our lives are inevitably subject to the physical limits of the Earth”, highlighting the importance of fostering collective cultural narratives that shift the Anthropocene paradigm and propose new ways of relating to biodiversity and non-human species. These narratives are already present in traditional ways of life and the knowledge they embody, and are increasingly reflected in a new wave of regulations and jurisprudence emerging in recent years in response to the devastating consequences of extractivist activities driving current trends.
