Drawing on Francois Laruelle's non-philosophy, this dissertation exposes and explores philosophy's fundamental role in the ecological crisis as it pursues the material construction of its thought-world at the expense of the planet. Facing the fact that widespread toxicity and contamination introduce subtle but irreversible changes to our species-being, the project aims to ground environmental thought in the reality of illness, debility and disability rather than in totalizing ontologies or speculative metaphysics. Rather than seek an exit from the human or lament the coming "end of the world," the goal is to radicalize ecological discourse and propose an alternative "Anthropocene to come" rooted in the minoritarian discourses of disability studies and decolonial theory. Chapter one draws a distinction between new materialist realism and nonphilosophy's central notion of "the One" through a reading of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach Trilogy before exploring Laruelle's call for a "generic ecology" in his essay "The Degrowth of Philosophy." Chapter two centers the intellectually disabled subject through a conjugation of non-philosophy with disability studies and proposes a "disabling of philosophy" rather than a "philosophy of disability" through disability theorists like Mel Baggs, Donna Williams and M. Remi Yergeau. Chapter three investigates the latent philosophical humanism at work in "the Anthropocene" and puts Laruelle in dialogue with Sylvia Wynter, Frantz Fanon, Edouard Glissant and other decolonial thinkers in order to establish a more radical "Anthropocene to come" predicated on an opaque and generic "genre of the human" hinted at in Laruelle's poem "On the Black Universe in the Human Foundations of Color.".
