> Provide specific dates and months. Even saying “summer (Northern Hemisphere)” implies the Euro–American-centric approach.
What? Do China, Russia, the Middle East, etc, not also have summer at the same time as Europe and America?
> And Indigenous communities often use seasonal calendars that align with their local environments, reflecting a deep connection with nature’s cycles
I see, this article is just nonsense.
This nagging language policing is so tiresome.
I like this reasoning, why not further stop using “day”, “night”, and “local time” so as to not be exclusionary to people that are not physically and temporally proximate? If it is day for me how could it be night for anyone else?? Simply supply coordinates and Unix time stamps for beginning and end, as any attempt at human-readable communication can exclude or confuse someone!
