URBAN NATURE – Episode 12: Geoffrey West and Gabriel Kozlowski

In this episode of Urban Nature, physicist Geoffrey West discusses the universal scaling laws that govern organisms, cities, and economies. Drawing from his book Scale, West explains how cities function as networked systems analogous to living organisms, exhibiting predictable patterns of growth, efficiency, and innovation. The conversation explores the implications of these laws for urbanization, sustainability, and the future of the planet, arguing that cities—rather than humanity alone—are the central drivers of the current “Urbanocene.”

URBAN NATURE - Episode 11: Sunita Narain and Gabriel Kozlowski

She emphasizes equity, local knowledge, and practical solutions that consider both human needs and environmental sustainability. Narain critiques conventional approaches to climate change, urban planning, and renewable energy, highlighting the resistance of professional orthodoxies to innovative ideas. She underscores that inclusive development is synonymous with sustainable development, and stresses the need for courage, imagination, and hope in addressing global environmental crises.

URBAN NATURE - Episode 8: Eduardo Góes Neves and Gabriel Kozlowski

In this episode of Urban Nature, Eduardo Góes Neves and Gabriel Kozlowski discuss how archaeology can be a means to understand change in human–natural systems over long timescales. Neves elaborates on the connection between ancient Amazonian societies with large-scale transformations of the natural environment. He emphasizes that what see as pristine forests are, most of the times, anthropic landscapes and, therefore, new attention should be given to the historical human factor in forest settings, which has the power to offer us alternatives models for the development of tropical societies.

URBAN NATURE - Episode 6: Tania Li and Gabriel Kozlowski

In this episode, Gabriel Kozlowski and Tania Li discuss the concept of land and its inscription, colonization by plantation corporations, modes of distribution beyond the “proper job,” and ethnographic approaches to the practice of politics. Tania Li is a professor of anthropology at the University of Toronto. She's known for her studies concerning land, labor, capitalism, development, politics, and indigeneity with a particular focus on Indonesia. Her work crosses multiple fields like geography, planning, law, and environmental studies, while bringing different actors together from activists to policymakers to make sense of transformations brought about by processes such as land reform, rural class formation, struggles over forests and their conservation, state-organized resettlement initiatives, and problems faced by people who are pushed off their land. Her books include the award-winning Lands End, Capitalist Relations on an Indigenous Frontier, Plantation Life, written with Pujo Semedi, The Will to Improve, Governmentality, Development and the Practices of Politics, the edited volume of Powers of Exclusion, and many more. https://www.taniali.org/ Gabriel Kozlowski is a Brazilian architect and curator.

URBAN NATURE - Episode 5: Jason W. Moore and Gabriel Kozlowski

In this episode of Urban Nature, Jason W. Moore and Gabriel Kozlowski discuss the concepts of nature, capitalism, and the web of life from the perspective of social construction, relations of power, and Modernity’s dualism. Moore argues that one of the most fundamental problems of Western civilization, both intellectually and politically, is the splitting between society and nature; that this binary is a form of violence that generates conditions of inequality and oppression while maintaining the hegemonic structures intact.
