Abstract
In this response to Zhiwa Woodbury's review of my book Radical Ecopsychology (2nd ed.), I clarify positions of mine that I believe Woodbury presents either inaccurately or inadequately. I do this by placing his comments and criticisms within the context of the issues I think they raise about the development of ecopsychology: the conflict between the inherent radicalism of ecopsychology and the historical conservatism of psychology; the need to develop critical distance from eco-destructive systems that need to be transformed or transcended; the challenge of preserving the truths that are essential to ecopsychology as we attempt to move from periphery to center; and the need to offer new images as part of the process of ecological social change. I comment throughout on the relevance of my argument that ecopsychology is inherently radical for making sense of the first-generation/second-generation ecopsychology crossroads.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
