"Cathartic/contemplative reckoning" is not what's going on here. There are all sorts of ways to bring oneself closer to an understanding of what the natural world is, how it functions & how humans function within it. Carting in a bunch of potted plants to confess at ain't it.
If tigers could profit from destroying the ecology of the planet, they would. Humans, uniquely, could, but don’t want to.I say this as someone who lived on a farm for years, who took wildlife rehabilitation trainings and has scars from squirrel bites. This is masturbatory. It is exactly as masturbatory as it looks if you drop the pretense and look straight at it.
