In this episode I speak with Ana Backstrom about novel ecosystems and why the term has, at times, been controversial. We explore the idea that its use may reveal more about our own subjective values rather than an ecosystem’s inherent qualities. This leads into broader reflections on how terms such as “natural,” “modified,” and “wilderness” continue to place humans outside of nature and ecology. We discuss how humans are very much part of nature, and how shifting this perspective allows us to move away from narratives of separation and towards roles as caretakers and stewards of Country.
Ana Backstrom is a plant ecologist with over twenty years’ experience working in biodiversity conservation and ecological restoration. She is currently completing a PhD that investigates socio-ecological management benchmarks for novel ecosystems. Her research aims to identify the key social and ecological attributes that shape novel ecosystem management decisions, and to explore the mechanisms and processes that either facilitate or impede the development of effective management strategies in highly changed landscapes.
