Making the argument that Humboldt created the idea of nature as we know it is a big claim, and I fear this excludes ant non-European ideas of nature and the environment

Its really cool hearing about how Humboldt discovered or at least hypothesized all these scientific ideas that today are considered common knowledge. I also really appreciate the link between colonization, exploitation of people, and the destruction of the environment.
