Abstract
ABSTRACT We are almost 8 billion people to live, eat and survive on the only inhabitable planet, yet few of us care for environmental issues. Our relationship with the Nature, in general, has been one of exploitation and spoliation, following the anthropocentric modern narrative that prioritizes an egocentric mindset. The outcomes are deprivation, scarcity, depletion of natural organisms, destruction of the space as a whole. Anchored in decolonial and transdisciplinary studies, this text ponders on the consequences of the Eurocentric narratives, claims the need of collectively building a different narrative, and advocates in favor of implicated literacies, a pedagogy for language teaching that understands that “life on Earth implicates life”, and encourages the improvement of environmental and social relations in a broader conception of sustainability.

Founded in 2001, the journal welcomes articles that address the many complex phenomena of language-related real life problems, concerning language use in different contexts or language learning. The journal also publishes reviews and interviews and two issues a year focus on a specific theme in the field. The journal is sponsored by UFMG Program of Linguistics Studies (POSLIN) and the research agency. Authors are free of charge.
