Green analyzes conflicting accounts of nature in environmental sciences that claim neutrality amid ongoing struggles for land restitution and environmental justice. Offering in-depth studies of environmental conflict in contemporary South Africa, Green addresses the history of contested water access in Cape Town; struggles over natural gas fracking in the Karoo; debates about decolonizing science; the potential for a politics of soil in the call for land restitution; urban baboon management; and the consequences of sending sewage to urban oceans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lesley Green, Professor of Anthropology and founding director of Environmental Humanities South at University of\u00a0Cape Town (South Africa), presented her book\u00a0Rock | Water | Life: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2020-10-12-Green.mp3","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2020-10-12-Green_pod.jpg","cover_image_id":"2033","duration":"54:29","filesize":"38.72M","filesize_raw":"40596096","date_recorded":"2020-10-12","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":""},"tags":[],"series":[16],"class_list":["post-2031","podcast","type-podcast","status-publish","hentry","series-greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks"],"episode_featured_image":false,"episode_player_image":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2020-10-12-Green_pod.jpg","download_link":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-download\/2031\/leslie-green-rock-water-life","player_link":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/2031\/leslie-green-rock-water-life","audio_player":"<a class=\"wp-embedded-audio\" href=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/2031\/leslie-green-rock-water-life\">https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast-player\/2031\/leslie-green-rock-water-life<\/a>","episode_data":{"playerMode":"dark","subscribeUrls":{"apple_podcasts":{"key":"apple_podcasts","url":"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks\/id1664960759","label":"Apple Podcasts","class":"apple_podcasts","icon":"apple-podcasts.png"},"google_podcasts":{"key":"google_podcasts","url":"","label":"Google Podcasts","class":"google_podcasts","icon":"google-podcasts.png"},"rss":{"key":"rss","url":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/feed\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks\/","label":"RSS","class":"rss","icon":"rss.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/0TNTSCl3zRBues4Eqjkwwm","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/feed\/podcast\/greenhouse-environmental-humanities-book-talks","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"WolxoK0WtM\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast\/leslie-green-rock-water-life\/\">Leslie Green &#8211; Rock | Water | Life<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/newnatures.org\/greenhouse\/podcast\/leslie-green-rock-water-life\/embed\/#?secret=WolxoK0WtM\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"&#8220;Leslie Green &#8211; Rock | Water | Life&#8221; &#8212; The Greenhouse Book Talks\" data-secret=\"WolxoK0WtM\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script>\n\/*!
