Eco-feminism is a transformational endeavor or movement that critically examines the historical relationship between the subjugation and denigration of women and the natural world.  Important Eco-Feminist Perspectives The way we interact with the natural world and each other are related. When we exploit nature, that philosophy transfers into exploitative relationships with other people as well.  Feminist psychology offers the environmental movement a vision of a preferred future; a vision of what human experience could become if we gave up the need to dominate and control.   Also relevant is the fact that the feminine represents beauty and the laws of attraction. Without this dynamic, life would have little pleasure or meaning and organisms would not be so inclined to procreate and evolve. 

We have delved into the specific reasons for our dysfunctional behaviors and have concluded that the majority of human difficulties have manifested themselves in misperceptions regarding our nature, purpose, meaning and destiny in relationship to the natural world.  Predicting Our Ecological Future The higher up on the food chain an organism is, the more fragile it is and the more likely not to succeed. Interestingly, if humans were removed from this equation, the Earth would not experience any particular detrimental impact and in fact, would be better off. Is It Too Late? I also believe that if we discover that we have rendered irreversible damage to the biosphere, we should continue our efforts to minimize or halt further damage as opposed to allowing further deterioration and ending our tenure in resignation.   Does the Universe Have a Purpose?

They simply look at the attainment of the material needs of society and how to obtain them most efficiently.  

We have delved into the specific reasons for our dysfunctional behaviors and have concluded that the majority of human difficulties have manifested themselves in misperceptions regarding our nature , purpose, meaning and destiny in relationship to the natural world. Commitment and Concerted Action in the World: Uniting Humanity to a Global Environmental Purpose We are now at the place where we have knowledge of specific interventions that must be initiated and how to go about them. What is missing is the global political will to carry out our mission and create a positive outcome. Does the Universe Have a Purpose? Our purpose and meaning may also be integrally tied to the destiny of the universe as well. Given our present knowledge and understanding of the cosmos is limited, it would appear that further rigorous investigation into this mystery is both prudent and ethical and will necessitate time and patience for us to arrive at a viable conclusion.
