This article by @hangingnoodles indeed should be kept in circulation. Slowly, MLS is becoming the paradigm that replaces individualism in all its forms. @DJSnower @timoreilly @EvonomicsMag @rorysutherland @EvoInstitute @tvolmag
Cooperation within cooperation within cooperation. Life is like a Russian doll of cooperation with selfishness-suppression operating at every level. Great article in @NoemaMag by @hangingnoodles featuring my work & @arvidagren @David_S_Wilson noemamag.com/the-other-invis…

“Destroying rainforest for economic gain is like burning a Renaissance painting to cook a meal.”
“A lifetime can be spent in a Magellanic voyage around the trunk of a single tree.”
--E.O. Wilson, 1929-2021
E.O. Wilson was an inspirational scientist who changed the way we think about ourselves and our planet. He will be deeply missed.
