About this listen

Peacewarts: Dept. of Universal Understars - Watersheds vs. Nation-States (Class 10)

We explore the concept of Bioregionalism and why natural topography—specifically watersheds—is a more logical and peaceful way to organize human society than abstract nation-states. We examine John Wesley Powell’s failed 1890 proposal and look at modern proponents of watershed-based boundaries who seek to align political logic with ecological reality.

Homework:

Interrupt your routine to find out the name of the watershed you currently live in.
Write down one question you have after this episode or doing homework #1. If no question comes to mind, write: "no question."
Optional: Journal about how your relationship with your "neighboring town" might change if you realized you both relied on the exact same underground aquifer.

Learning topics: Watersheds, Bioregionalism, John Wesley Powell, Topography vs. Cartography, Modern Water-Sharing Movements, Ecological Sovereignty.
