It is time we had an interdisciplinary world. It is time we created a society where all levels of thinking and society can work together – so the individual psychologies can live together in a more integrated society. Interdisciplinary thinking tries to promote environmentalism, capitalism, religion, heroic individualism, and families simultaneously. Beauty, truth, and ethics are united.

Changing Species Change Environments
Scientists have discovered what anyone who understands complex systems already understands: evolution of species affects the environment. I am thrilled that this has been definitely demonstrated, though, as it sets up a solid foundation for understanding how changing organisms change the environment, which changes the organisms. And for a species as flexible as humans, with a highly plastic brain that complexifies in response to a more complex environment, this is even more true. This is a very significant development for understanding both evolution and the environment, including human mental evolution and our human environments. Feedback loops are yet again confirmed.

Another article you might find interesting comes in the latest Discover Magazine - "Where the Wild Things Are". The article concerns Oostvaardersplassen and the ecologist Frans Vera.
You have really great taste on catch article titles, even when you are not interested in this topic you push to read it
