"If life as we know it is at stake (...) the best approach is to ecologize the economy instead of economizing the environment." We can start "by transforming human systems of destruction into ecological repair." T.J. Demos (2016). Decolonizing Nature. Contemporary Art and the Politics of Ecology.

"Infrastructure is both relational and ecological—it means different things to different groups and it is part of the balance of action, tools, and the built environment, inseparable from them. (...) to understand the interplay of online and offline behavior (...) include studying the design of infrastructure, understanding the paradoxes of infrastructure as both transparent and opaque, including invisible work in the ecological analysis, and pinpointing the epistemological status of indicators."
