For University of North Texas philosophy professor and ecologist Ricardo Rozzi, this love-hate relationship among humans, plants, tiny insects and the environments in which they co-exist has a deeper, philosophical meaning. A native Chilean, he has spent more than a decade researching environmental ethics and biocultural conservation at the Omora Park, located in the UNESCO Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve at the southern tip of South America. The reserve is one of the world’s last pristine wilderness areas.
