The Man Who Saw Nature as One Living Web

Picture a Prussian aristocrat clinging to a two-inch ridge at 19,413 feet, bleeding and gasping in the thin air of what was believed to be Earth's highest peak. Alexander von Humboldt wasn't there for glory or conquest-he was there to measure, to observe, to understand. Standing before an impassable crevasse on Chimborazo in 1802, he experienced something that would revolutionize how we see our planet: nature wasn't a collection of separate parts to be catalogued and controlled. It was one magnificent, interconnected organism where everything related to everything else. This insight-radical for its time-would make Humboldt the most famous scientist in the world, yet somehow lead to his near-total erasure from English-speaking memory. How does someone who warned about human-induced climate change in 1800 become forgotten?
