This is an open-content project to which all are welcome to contribute words, images, and definitions that describe how human activity and nature unintentionally intersect, interact, or merge. These new words can describe mundane entities, extreme occurrences, unusual phenomena, and actions and descriptives of all kinds.
An every-day example is “root-kilter”, a term coined to describe the way a tree root slowly pushes up a slab of sidewalk. Another example is “act of man”, a phrase Canadian scientist David Suzuki uses to describe a human-triggered weather catastrophe.
The Human Nature Dictionary is part of an on-going effort to catalyze a reconsideration of humans’ relationship to the natural world.
Feel free to contact me with your words, definitions or images. If you have a word but no definition, send that. Or if you have a definition or image that needs word coining, send it in! We’ll be happy to attribute your contributions as you prefer. Thanks for visiting the Human Nature Dictionary and participating in re-shaping our culture through language!
