This is a dangerous illusion that promotes futile managerial approaches to an untameable natural world.==== 2 +Kuletz, '98 3 +~~Valerie Kuletz, University of Canterbury.

This presupposition mandates the imagining of ecological Armageddon as a tactic to stave off a more vital project of reimagining our relationship to the Earth.==== 13 +Swyngedouw, '6 14 +**~~Erik Swyngedouw, University of Manchester.

Their construction of the environment as manageable by Human Will is responsible for the very ecological abuse they decry. Once presented as a mere standing reserve for human use, environmental destruction becomes not just possible, but natural.==== 24 +Luke, '3 25 +**~~Timothy Luke, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.

Don't be fooled – this isn't a question of passivity but of a releasement from the Will to Technology and an openness to the mystery of Being which transcends activity. Only such an ontological disarmament inaugurates new modes of revealing that don't depend on nature's subordination to human motivations.==== 36 +McWhorter, '92 37 +~~Ladelle McWhorter, University of Richmond.
