Monoculture

"...ve? (Exit interview patterns: "didn't fit culture" often = homogeneity signal) 3. Check misalignment: If you say "diverse perspectives" but hire monoculture, you're signaling brand pedigree over actual diversity. Success metric: Hiring sources, backgrounds, and demographics visibly diversify quarter-..."

"...ight pollution exploits their navigation algorithms. Case 2: Agricultural monocultures and pest outbreaks Humans construct agricultural niches (monoculture fields: vast areas of genetically uniform crops). This creates ideal conditions for specialist pests and pathogens: abundant resources, no genetic va..."

"The value of ecological redundancy becomes most apparent when it's lost: simplified ecosystems with low diversity (agricultural monocultures, overfished oceans, degraded forests) exhibit reduced stability, increased vulnerability to pests and diseases, and diminished capacity to provide ec..."

"The ecosystem absorbed a catastrophe and continued. Meanwhile, in an adjacent field, a farmer has planted a monoculture - thousands of acres of a single corn variety. A pathogen emerges. Within weeks, the entire crop is lost."

"Limpets and chitons starved, their food gone. Within three years, the diverse intertidal zone - which had supported 15 species - collapsed to a monoculture of mussels and the few species that could tolerate them. Paine had discovered something fundamental: some species have influence vastly disproportio..."
