"The environment is what's left to man after he's lost everything." (The Coming Insurrection, The Invisible Committee, 2009; page 74).
Relationships transform environments into lived presences. As gifts give meaning to commodities so relationships give meaning to environments and make them more well suited to the particular needs of the people occupying the niches of the environments we call habitations.
We do not live in environments, we live in habitations, whether they be homes or houses or cities or regions or landscaped rural settings with roads and electricity and water.
Our relationships cocoon us from the environment.
