, a German activist and politician, co-created a Green Party in her country from which she advocated for ecological, human rights, and feminist causes.
Lorena Casco, a 38-year-old Uruguayan teacher, and activist, explained her view of ecofeminism to the FBomb."The world can't resist capitalism's consequences — the level of consumption we have nowadays is unbearable," she said."Feminism and environmental issues are connected because they come from the same root." Lorena claims that for our patriarchal society, everything is a resource, human or nature, and this generates a lot of inequality and destruction.
Ecofeminists and authors Maria Mies and Vandana Shiva share this view. They have spent their careers explaining how the capitalist patriarchal world system is responsible for both the destruction of the planet and the denial of women's rights. "This system emerged, is built upon, and maintains itself through the colonization of women, of 'foreign' peoples and their lands, and of nature, which it is gradually destroying," Mies and Shiva wrote in their co-authored book Although capitalism has survived for so many years, the philosopher Alicia Puleo states in her article, that it's an unsustainable option in the long run — and women can play a huge rule in dismantling it.
