Climate change instantiates all three forms of status misrecognition of nature
Evidence
It is not very difficult to think of cases where we can see nature being maligned and disrespected in any or all of the three ways outlined above. In the causes of, and discussions surrounding, global climate change, for example, we see all forms of status-injurious misrecognition—the domination of nature by extractive industries, the invisibility of nature in political planning (even with warnings beginning decades ago), and the disparaging of the natural world in discussions of the mitigation of impacts on human communities at the expense of nature. — David Schlosberg, Defining Environmental Justice, 467
