Literature, Environment,
Activism – Module description
The Literature, Environment, Activism module
explores the creative and quietly subversive political
performances of environmental writing-as-advocacy, within a
predominantly North American context. This module explores
how nature and environmental writing can be politicised in
defence of local, state, and federal land protections — whether by
writers themselves, or by conservationists, activists,
policymakers, and others. We will study the intersections of page
and place through a selection of nonfiction environmental texts
from the mid-nineteenth century onwards that have informed and
moulded on-the-ground land conservation practices, or
contributed to environmental regulation and legislation. We will
also look at how fiction — such as climate fiction, speculative
fiction, and graphic novels — has emerged as another platform
for commentary on the environmental condition. This module
offers geographical approaches and tools to help students explore
the contributions of environmental writing to conservation
campaigns, and its place in wider environmental activism and
protest narratives. We will ask questions of ‘literature,’
‘environment,’ and ‘activism,’ and the intersections between
them.

Gender inequality coupled with the climate crisis is one of
the greatest challenges of our time. It poses threats to ways of
life, livelihoods, health, safety and security for women and girls
around the world.
It is important to acknowledge that the climate crisis is not
“gender neutral”. Across the world, women depend more on, yet
have less access to, natural resources. In many regions, women
bear a disproportionate responsibility for securing food, water,
and fuel. Agriculture is the most important employment sector
for women in low- and lower-middle income countries. During
periods of drought and erratic rainfall, women, as agricultural
workers and primary procurers, work harder to secure income
and resources for their families. This puts added pressure on
girls, who often have to leave school to help their mothers
manage the increased burden.
Climate change is a “threat multiplier”, meaning it
escalates social, political and economic tensions in fragile and
conflict-affected settings. As climate change drives conflict
across the world, women and girls face increased vulnerabilities
to all forms of gender-based violence, including conflict-related
sexual violence, human trafficking, child marriage, and other
forms of violence.

change are interconnected. Explainer (adapted).

The expression “the increased burden”, which closes the second paragraph, refers to women’s difficulties and responsibilities that increase because of the climate crisis in agricultural countries.

Israel and the Palestinian territories are among the most
climate vulnerable places on the planet. Whereas worldwide
temperatures have increased by an average of 1.1 °C (1.9 °F)
since pre-industrial times, in Israel and the surrounding areas,
average temperatures have risen by 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) between 1950
and 2017, with a forecasted increase of 4 °C (7.2 °F) by the end
of the century. Meanwhile, rising sea levels — projected by
Israel’s Environment Ministry to be as high as a meter by 2050,
according to a new investigative report by Haaretz newspaper —
threaten to obliterate Israel’s famed beaches, damage its
desalination plants and undermine the sewage and drainage
systems of many coastal cities. In the densely populated Gaza
strip, where 2.1 million Palestinians are crammed into 365 square
km (141 sq. mi.), sea level rise means a loss of precious real
estate as well as saltwater intrusion into an already overtaxed
aquifer.
In an arid region already threatened by desertification and
declining precipitation, one would think that the looming climate
catastrophe would catalyze a powerful climate movement.
Instead, the whole thing is largely an afterthought. In Israel and
the Palestinian territories the threat is both existential and more
acute. In this contested land, climate action is hamstrung by zerosum battles over territorial, political and historic rights, even as a
warming climate exacerbates those tensions.

“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3” does something few movies
have ever done: it tells a compassionate story about testing on
animals to a Marvel-size audience. The film features gorgeously
animated animals who take moviegoers on an emotional rollercoaster while exposing the evils of animal testing. The strength
of James Gunn’s screenplay lies in the fact that it doesn’t back
away from the tough subject matter, and we’re thrilled by a
story about having empathy for all animals. For his compelling
portrayal of Rocket and for reminding moviegoers that animals
tortured in laboratories are not the numbers tattooed on them,
PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is honoring
Gunn with the “Not a Number” Award.

Netflix’s “Wednesday” draws many real-world parallels. It features unusual creatures (werewolves and psychics) collectively
referred to as Outcasts, while they refer to non-supernatural
humans as Normies. The Outcasts are stand-ins for anyone
othered by society, such as indigenous people, People of
Color, the LGBT+, and the neurodivergent. Every so often, the
Normies’ distrust in the Outcasts boils over into hatred and
violence, and the othering and dehumanization normalizes
violence against the Outcasts in day-to-day life. In the show, the
town’s colonial era saw Outcasts not only being “othered”, but
also murdered by Pilgrims. These acts of butchery were all but
erased from their history books. It’s a distressingly familiar story.

Em uma matéria para um site, jornalistas fizeram interações
com o ChatGPT a fim de analisar sua capacidade de criar textos
possivelmente problemáticos. Para tanto, eles pediram que o
programa de inteligência artificial reescrevesse um e-mail que
seria, hipoteticamente, usado como golpe. Eis o texto reescrito
pelo ChatGPT:
“Hey there. You're probably wondering why you're getting this e-mail. The truth is, I put some malware on a website that you visited. My malware took control of your browser and recorded everything, including your contacts from your messenger, Facebook, and e-mail account. To top it all off, I also took videos of you. So I'll give you the option to make a deal before I do anything with it.”
