Small brain eco-humanist: "if melting is a kind of 'behavior', and if ice has to 'know' the temperature in order to begin the 'behavior' of melting, then it's like we can define ice as knowing about climate change!"
It's a sad statement about the eco-humanist academy that they feel they need to rewrite causality in terms of knowledge.
It's also sad that in the pursuit of an inhuman semiotic they overlook the warrant of Peircean pragmatism: that this shit matters inasmuch as its cash-value.
Suppose you want to play along with the "icebergs know about climate change" game. What bets would you place differently? How could anyone use this information to get superior resolution to the dissonances of everyday experience?
