Marx and nature - Elizabeth Terzakis Why we need Marx now more than ever.
The Nihilism of Moderation - Luke Savage When the survival of the planet is at stake, calls for moderation and compromise aren’t a mark of adult politics — they’re a threat to civilization.

Capitalism destroyed this relatively unalienated metabolic relationship between human beings and nature through what Marx called primitive accumulation. Because of the appropriation of land through its enclosure and conversion to private property, most humans no longer have a direct relationship to the means of subsistence, with the result that we experience a four-fold alienation: (1) we are alienated from the products of our labor—that is, they do not contribute directly to the satisfaction of our needs; (2) we are alienated from the labor process itself, and since labor is one of the things that makes us distinctly human, we are thus alienated from ourselves, what Marx called our human species-being; (3) we are alienated from each other, because rather than engaging in a communal project to satisfy our needs as human beings, we are forced into competition with each other to secure access to the means of production from capitalists and labor for their profit, and because we are by nature social, we are thus once again alienated from ourselves; and (4) we are alienated from nature—our inorganic body. So the alienation of humans from their labor is, according to Marx, inseparable from the alienation of human beings from nature—what Marx called the metabolic rift.
...
Marx’s understanding of the human relationship with nature and his conception of the full development of human nature go far beyond labor and are, to me, the most exciting and inspiring positive aspects of his theory because of the power they have to overcome the many rifts produced as a result of or at least simultaneously with the metabolic rift of primitive accumulation: the split between human beings and nature, between mind and body, between natural and human science, and between natural and human history.
