This article is concerned about the possibilities of what we are able to do once we acknowledge the fact that we are wandering bodies in contact with other bodies. What can we do? What does an environmental epistemology entail once sensitivity, body, meaning and affection are brought to the front? We begin with a discussion on dichotomies, monisms and dualisms, to offer, afterwards, a proposal from multiplicities, bodies between bodies, and encounters between radical alternatives. Is it possible to open a halfway point free from dualities, and, at the same time, respectful of differences? Can we imagine an environmental ethic that starts from the body, the sensible universe and the touch? We are unaware of all the power that a body entail when it is known as a body that dwell among other bodies.
