"Extractive" refers to things that can be removed or drawn out, like natural resources (oil, minerals, timber) from the earth, chemical compounds from plants (like caffeine), or even attention/data from users by technology, often involving taking without fully replacing, leading to debates on sustainability and impact on communities. It applies to physical resources, biological matter, and abstract concepts like attention or profit, all centered around the act of extraction, says Dictionary.com.
How do we transform our world from an extractive economy to a sustainable, productive, regenerative economy?
We integrate ecology into economics & into our homes. We value people & planet over profit, and we care for them. We put an end to the perpetual resource extraction as if these were unlimited, and we work with what we got. We recognize our labor’s value and apply it towards economic wellbeing based on regeneration, not extraction or exploitation. We reevaluate, reimagine, recreate & detoxify our relationships with ownership, property, power dynamics, with each other and with ourselves.
It’s already happening all around us. If you're not already part of this movement, there are many ways you can get started: baby steps & bigger steps & strides.
