Pollution is Colonisation by Max Liboiron

Pollution Is Colonialism by Max Liboiron explores the complex intersections of environmental pollution and colonial power dynamics. Through a decolonial lens, Liboiron argues that pollution is not only an ecological issue but also an ongoing form of colonial violence that impacts Indigenous lands and communities disproportionately. The book calls for a rethinking of environmental practices and policies, suggesting that scientific methods themselves often perpetuate colonial ideologies. Combining Indigenous research methods with critical environmental theory, Liboiron offers a powerful framework for understanding and resisting the colonial structures embedded in environmental degradation.
