Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter thinks with respiration as an elemental process of chemical exchange engendered by solarity in forest ecosystems. While photosynthesis converts sunlight into usable energy through carbon capture, respiration is the process of release and decay that makes these ecosystems sites of symbiosis. Attuned to solarity, we follow stories of how such energy conditions and moves through various forms of life and death in our heliocentric universe. Learning from the unstable and mutually beneficial relationships that characterize actually existing forests, we scrutinize the chemical, social, and analogical meanings of solar-inflected respiration. As key mediators of sunlight and carbon, trees are often valued for the services they provide as so-called “planetary lungs” and carbon sinks in times of climate crisis. Interrogating the promises and perils of such utilitarian conceptualizations of the natural world, we consider the ways in which these co-called lungs are unevenly valued and cared for. With compromised conditions of livability across more-than-human social worlds shaped by colonial capitalism and ongoing histories of imperialism, we look to the ways that Indigenous, Black and other marginalized knowledge keepers engage with the notion of respiration in seeking a more just distribution of planetary breathability.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
