From "forever chemicals" to oceanic garbage patches, human-made chemical compounds are seemingly everywhere. Concerned about how these compounds disrupt multiple lives and ecologies, environmental scholars, activists, and affected communities have sought to curb the causes of pollution, focusing especially on the extractive industries. In Worlds of Gray and Green, authors SebastiaÌn Ureta and Patricio Flores challenge us to rethink extraction as ecological practice. Adopting an environmental humanities analytic lens, Ureta and Flores offer a rich ethnographic exploration of the waste produced by Chile's El Teniente, the world's largest underground mine. Deposited in a massive dam, the waste—known as tailings—engages with human and non-human entities in multiple ways through a process the authors call geosymbiosis. Some of these geosymbioses result in toxicity and damage, while others become the basis of lively novel ecologies. A particular kind of power emerges in the process, one that is radically indifferent to human beings but that affects them in many ways. Learning to live with geosymbioses offers a tentative path forward amid ongoing environmental devastation--Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a El Teniente (Mine) $x Environmental aspects. 610 27 $a El Teniente (Mine) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00621882 650 0 $a Copper mines and mining $x Environmental aspects $z Chile. 650 0 $a Water $x Pollution $z CareÌn Reservoir. $z CareÌn Reservoir. 651 0 $a CareÌn Reservoir (Chile) $x Environmental conditions. 650 0 $a Human ecology $z Chile. 650 6 $a Cuivre $x Aspect de l'environnement $x Aspect de l'environnement $z Chili. 650 6 $a EÌcologie humaine $z Chili. 650 7 $a SCIENCE / Environmental Science (see also Chemistry / Environmental) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Human Geography. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Copper mines and mining $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00878516 650 7 $a Ecology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00901476 650 7 $a Human ecology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00962941 650 7 $a Water $x Pollution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01171279 651 7 $a Chile $z CareÌn Reservoir. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01271857 651 7 $a Chile. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205362 700 1 $a Flores, Patricio, $d 1985- $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ureta, SebastiaÌn, 1976- $t Worlds of gray and green $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2022] $z 9780520386303 $w (DLC) 2021057669 830 0 $a Critical environments (Oakland, Calif.) ; $v 11. 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100353.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E9A305B0214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
