“To the extent that we hyper-separate ourselves from nature and reduce it conceptually in order to justify domination, we not only lose the ability to empathise and to see the non-human sphere in ethical terms, but also get a false sense of our own character and location that includes an illusory sense of autonomy. The failure to see the non-human domain in the richer terms appropriate to ethics licences supposedly â€˜purely instrumentalâ€™ relationships that distort our perceptions and enframings, impoverish our relations and make us insensitive to dependencies and interconnections”
