ecological criticism

Ecological criticism is an approach to analyzing literature and other cultural expressions that explores our relationship with the environment. It examines how texts reflect, influence, or challenge ideas about nature, ecosystems, and human impact. By doing so, it raises awareness of environmental issues, promotes sustainability, and encourages a deeper understanding of our interconnectedness with the natural world. This perspective considers how cultural works can inspire ecological responsibility and help address environmental challenges through critical insight into human-environment interactions.
