My research brings multinatural ontologies into generative tension with positivist epistemologies in order to ecologize institutional practices at a granular level, specifically in the close reading and (re)writing of environmental policy. It is not sufficient, in my view, to analyze more-than-human entanglements without regard to the institutional complexes that play an outsized role in shaping them. I focus on local planning, policy, regulations, and management guidance pertaining to urban ecosystems and identify changes that codify practices that are affirmative of ontological heterogeneity and care.
