A way of understanding the world through the lens of interconnected networks, like the mycelium that links roots, soil, and trees see life as a complex, continuous web where humans are a mere subset. Animals, plants, fungi, rivers, soil, infrastructures, and even machines all participate in, and sustain, this web, moving beyond human-centred narratives. Every entity is an active agent, shaping and being shaped by its surroundings. For example, granting a river legal rights of personhood, as has happened in several countries, is a societal shift that acknowledges it as a living actor in the landscape, not merely a resource to be exploited. This perspective shows that an individual’s well-being cannot be separated from the well-being of the entire web.
