"What shocks me is the initial dualism. In his metaphysical madness, the Greek thinker separated notions that were considered complementary in other civilizations: culture and nature. This is what we call dualism. Women were associated with nature [...] and men with culture."
Mary, L'Écoféminisme en questions - Pascale D'Erm
Ecofeminism thus links the ecological crisis to patriarchy, postulating that the mechanisms of domination that engender the destruction of nature and the oppression of women are similar.
