Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Answer to Question 2

- Ecofeminism (or ecological feminism): an environmental philosophy born from the union of feminism and environmental thinking.
- Ecofeminism argues that the same social mindset that has led to the domination and oppression of women is intimately connected to the social mindset that has led to the abuse of the natural environment.
- Often emphasizes the importance of interrelationships between humans, non-human sentient others, as well as the earth, and all its ecology.
- By looking at our relationship to the environment in terms of domination and oppression, ecofeminism seeks to redefine our understanding and relationship to nature in order to heal our human community, and our environment and all that it contains.
