Abstract
The greatest sense of estrangement we face today as humans is our increasing lack of connectedness with Nature as a whole. Though the resources
and processes in Nature provide for our benefi t and well- being, we are being
increasingly alienated from them. Despite this, we contend that we can control and dominate these processes and resources, and if need be, can replace
them with products of human ingenuity and technology. This mentality is
in large part the result of our minds being commandeered by the dominant
neoliberal ideology of our times.
