抄録	If the Anthropocene is an epoch of extraction causing ecological harm and risks that sever relations between bodies and land, it can also be an epoch of repair and reconnection. Recent scholarship in studies of science, technology, and society (STS) and environmental data justice (EDJ) has challenged many forms of extraction, from oil and gas extraction to data mining, as they perpetuate systems of oppression that produce environmental injustice. This paper positions regulatory systems as mechanisms of extraction, primarily through what Kirsty Howey and Timothy Neale (2022) call "divisible governance," which fragments the environment by soil, air, water, time by days or years, bodies by organ systems, and isolates compounds while manipulating time. This paper positions EDJ as a framework geared towards repairing these divisions epistemically through community and civic sciences. Drawing from three ethnographic scenes of air monitoring collaborations among STS scholars, residents living near oil and gas extraction in Karnes, Texas, scientists, and community organizers, the paper shows how incorporating diverse tools and community-driven methods to monitor health-harming toxicants such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and black carbon, can help to surface community experiences. These reflections offer a vision of “civic validity,” which includes standards for science and future community-based air monitoring and research that aims to improve ecological health and livelihoods.
