Radical Feminism in Environmentalism

Radical feminism in environmentalism emphasizes that environmental issues are deeply interconnected with gender inequality and systems of dominance. It argues that patriarchy—centralized male power—has historically exploited both women and nature for profit and control. Radical feminists believe that to truly address environmental problems, society must dismantle these patriarchal systems, which oppress women and deplete natural resources simultaneously. This perspective advocates for fundamental societal changes, promoting gender equality as essential to achieving sustainable environmental justice.
