Nouvelle Alexandrie |
Sirvan Moshiri (born 15.VII.1695 AN) is a New Alexandrian politician and former industrial chemist who has served as a Deputy in the Federal Assembly of Nouvelle Alexandrie representing the Region of Alduria since 1729 AN. A prominent member of the Federal Humanist Party, Moshiri is recognized for developing the theoretical framework of "humanist environmentalism" and his uncompromising stance against pollution as a threat to human supremacy.
Early life and education
Born in Punta Santiago to a family of Babkhi origin, Moshiri was raised in a household deeply influenced by humanist ideology. His father, Dr. Cyrus Moshiri, was a prominent industrial chemist who worked for the Aldurian Oil Company until his death from respiratory complications in 1718 AN, which Moshiri attributes to decades of exposure to industrial pollutants during an era of inadequate safety standards. This personal tragedy profoundly shaped Moshiri's worldview, leading him to pursue advanced studies in chemical engineering at the University of Punta Santiago. During his university years, he became increasingly involved with Humanist Vanguard student organizations, where he developed his distinctive synthesis of humanist ideology with environmental concerns.
Industrial career
Following graduation in 1720 AN, Moshiri worked as an industrial chemist for several major corporations in Alduria, including ESB Susa and Pontecorvo Firm. His direct experience with industrial processes and waste management gave him intimate knowledge of how pollution threatens human health and environmental stability. During this period, he witnessed what he described as "the corrupting influence of chthonic forces manifesting through industrial contamination that weakens the human form." Moshiri's breakthrough came in 1725 AN when he developed a revolutionary water treatment process that eliminated 97% of industrial toxins while reducing costs by 40%. This innovation earned him recognition within humanist circles as someone who could advance both human prosperity and environmental protection through technological supremacy.
Political awakening
After passing from the Vanguard into the regional cadres of the Federal Humanist Party, Sirvan, like many others was recorded as a dormant member, with his membership dues falling into arrears.
The Spring Crisis of 1739 marked Moshiri's transition from industry to politics. He viewed the attempted coup as evidence that environmental degradation was weakening human society's capacity for coordinated resistance against chaos. In a widely-circulated essay titled "The Polluted State," he argued that environmental contamination represented a form of "chthonic corruption" that undermined human unity and strength.
Upon elevation to the national cadres of the Federal Humanist Party in 1740 AN, Moshiri quickly rose through party ranks due to his unique ability to frame environmental issues in humanist terms. His argument that pollution control was essential for maintaining human supremacy over Micras resonated with party leadership seeking to expand beyond traditional security and economic concerns.
Environmental philosophy
Moshiri's "humanist environmentalism" represents a radical departure from conventional environmental thought. Rather than viewing nature as inherently valuable, he argues that environmental protection serves the higher purpose of ensuring human dominion over Micras. He maintains that pollution and environmental degradation represent manifestations of the hostile planetary forces that resist human settlement, requiring technological mastery and coordinated state action to overcome. In his influential work "Purifying the Realm" (1731 AN), Moshiri wrote: "Every toxin released into our air and water represents a victory for the chthonic corruption that seeks to weaken humanity's grasp upon this world. Our duty as the avatars of the highest divinity is to achieve such technological supremacy that we can purify not merely our immediate environment, but the very essence of Micras itself." This philosophy has attracted both admirers and critics within humanist circles, with some praising his innovative synthesis while many others questioned whether environmental concerns distract from more fundamental humanist objectives.
Political career
Elected to the Federal Assembly in 1729 AN, Moshiri has consistently advocated for aggressive anti-pollution measures framed as national security imperatives.
Controversies
Moshiri's hardline positions have generated controversy, particularly his support for forced relocation of communities living in heavily polluted areas and his advocacy for "genetic monitoring" programs to track the effects of environmental contamination on human populations. Critics argue these positions represent authoritarian overreach, while supporters maintain they are necessary measures for protecting human supremacy.
