This project stems from a paper titled "Facing the Broader Dimensions of Biological Invasions." These broader dimensions include the social and political consequences of invasions, something that American scientists have not published on when compared to their peers in Europe, Australia, and Africa. The point of this project is to draw attention to factors that effect biological invasions from outside the ecosystem, most notably human ideals and biases. These ideals and biases also affect other humans. In drawing attention to the idea of desired natures and then attempting to suggest ways to eliminate their influence, this project will attempt to change how people think about this concept of invasive species.
