石油和天然气开采改变了阿尼什纳贝社会，破坏了自然法的共识、整体和平等基础。对于许多原住民来说，将化石燃料和其他能源视为“自然资源”并不能准确定义能源项目或捕捉相关风险。一些 Anishinaabe 管道反对者建议，传统的收获协议——文化中嵌入的道德戒律，管理食物和药用植物的采集——也适用于生产能源的活动。本文探讨了如何实现这一目标，重点关注焦油砂开采和 3 号线扩建计划。我首先讨论 Anishinaabe 收获协议，确定四个重叠的关键概念：权利、责任、关系和互惠。然后将这些原则映射到 Anishinaabe 对石油、水力、风能和太阳能的理解上。由此产生的分析挑战了能源生产的采掘主义叙述，为重新思考人与能源之间的关系以及指导能源决策的价值观提供了可能性。
Oil and gas extraction has transformed Anishinaabe society in ways that undermine the consensual, holistic, and egalitarian basis of natural law. To many Indigenous people, framing fossil fuels and other energy sources as “natural resources” does not accurately define energy projects or capture related risks. Some Anishinaabe pipeline opponents have suggested that traditional harvesting protocols–culturally embedded moral precepts that govern the gathering of food and medicinal plants–also be applied to activities that produce energy. This paper explores how this could be done, focusing on tar sands extraction and the Line 3 expansion plan. I begin by discussing Anishinaabe harvesting protocols, identifying four overlapping key concepts: rights, responsibility, relationality, and reciprocity. These principles are then mapped onto Anishinaabe understandings of oil, hydro, wind, and solar energy. The resulting analysis challenges extractivist narratives of energy production, opening possibilities to rethink the relationship between people and energy as well as the values that inform energy decisions.
