My partner Carol sent me a definition of ecofeminism, while I was writing last Sunday’s sermon on ecofeminism. Her definition is much better than mine (she probably should have preached the sermon), and she has given me permission to reprint it here:<\/p>\n
eco-feminism:<\/strong> the new era of the green paradigm will be championed and fronted by strong, sexy women, ages 30 to 90, but especially 35 to 68—when wisdom meets energy. They are more likely to be systems thinkers, partly thanks to their internal purpose and sense of a web of relationships and their relationships to others.<\/p>\n
they are less prone to seeking off-the-shelf solutions and more likely to look to broader systems<\/p>\n
after a generation of attempted protest-based change, the new age of change will be led by solutions-based change driven by women (and men).<\/p>\n
the image of a woman suggests nurturing, abundance, sexiness, fecundity, potential — which is why i try to get women into as many images as possible in my<\/a> books<\/a>, etc.<\/p>\n
environmental restoration\/right relations with ecosystem won’t be implemented with intervention (a penetration model). it will be effected by creating a whole other potential, one that combines the forces of many and is nurtured by many (a birth model)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
