Abstract

For a long time, androcentrism tied to gender was the greatest threat to women's liberation. Man exploited nature just as much as his female counterpart. Feminist goals are part of a more extensive ecological system that includes political, social, and cultural institutions, as suggested by the progress of science, technology, and the philosophy of rational civilization. In the twenty-first century, ecofeminism describes the entire movement
