Organisms Remodel Their Niches

The article revives Jean‑Baptiste Lamarck’s core claim that organisms do not merely adapt to fixed environments but, through their behaviour and life histories, change their bodies and the environments they inhabit. Contemporary research and historical reappraisal make this 'niche‑remodeling' idea worth reintroducing into public debates about evolution, ecology and techno‑bio policy. — If organisms are agents of change, that reframes how we think about environmental management, bioengineering ethics and the cultural story of human uniqueness — shifting responsibility and intervention strategies.
