[Environment-readinggroup] restarting after summer - share your own writing with the group

[Fieke]

Hi environment readers,

It was great to read and discuss Janna chapter with you today. I'm 
emailing to share a change in our reading schedule.

To dive deeper in Asia's comment about resourcification vs extractivitsm 
we will read the following text next reading group session 'A 
resourcification manifesto: Understanding the social process of 
resources becoming resources 
<https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048733321000986>' . 
This will be an interesting discussion on resourcification vs 
extractivitsm vs green capitalism.

We will read the ‘The compost engineers and sus saberes lentos: a 
manifest for regenerative technologies 
<https://codingrights.org/docs/compost_engineers.pdf>‘ by Joana Varon 
and Lucía Egana on Decemer 17th.

See the full schedule here

Happy reading

Fieke
