Résumé documentaire — langue originale
Evoking Turtle Island as a metaphor for North America calls attention to how ecological diversity and connectedness are intertwined with culture, social metabolism, and power relations on the continent. The environmental provisions of NAFTA, largely an afterthought and mostly unenforceable, never gave life to the integrated wholeness of Turtle Island. Yet, they became a blueprint for subsequent trade agreements in the Americas and beyond, locking in weak mechanisms for responding to the environmental consequences of accelerated trade among growth-insistent capitalist economies and firmly establishing the environment as a low priority in the trade world. In renegotiating NAFTA, Canada, Mexico, and the United States did little to harness the desire for enhanced trade to address looming socio-ecological crises, choosing instead to add nonbinding language about a scattering of environmental issues, while also giving opponents of stronger environmental protections new tools to impede them. NAFTA's unfulfilled goal to seek upward harmonization of environmental protections was removed, and climate change is conspicuously absent. Notions of kinship, respect, responsibility, and reciprocity that many Indigenous cultures accord to the human relationship to Earth are barely discernible in the new arena for North American trade. The new NAFTA, more than ever, treats North America as a territory for exploitation and profit-making, not a territory of life that must be honored and allowed to flourish for the benefit of future generations of North Americans – human and nonhuman. An alternative vision of North American integration would see Turtle Island as a network of place-based territories of life, with a value shift toward mutually enhancing human–Earth relationships and a solid commitment to socio-ecological restoration at the core.
