Ecofeminism generally is based on the understanding that gender as a concept is the basis of the human-environment relationships.[1] Studies suggest that there's a difference between men and women when it comes to how they treat nature, for instance, women are known to be more involved with environmentally friendly behaviors. Socially there's an important claim in the ecofeminism theoretical framework that the patriarchy is linked to discrimination against women and the degradation of the environment.[2] In Canada the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and Toxics in 2020[3] shows that ineffective environmental management and mismanagement of hazardous waste is affecting different age groups, genders, and socioeconomic status in different ways, while three years before that, Canadian Human Rights Commission in 2017 submitted another report, warning the government about how the exposure to environmental hazards is a different experience for minorities in Canada.[4] There have been ecofeminist movements for decades all over Canada such as Mother's Milk Project,[5] protests against Uranium mining in Nova Scotia,[6] and the Clayoquot Sound Peace Camp.[2] Ecofeminism has also appeared as a concept in the media, such as books, publications, movies, and documentaries such as the MaddAddam trilogy by Margaret Atwood[7] and Fury for the Sound: the women at Clayoquot by Shelley Wine.[8] Ecofeminism in the Canadian context has been subject to criticism, especially by the Indigenous communities as they call it cultural appropriation,[9] non-inclusive,[10] and inherent in colonial worldviews and structures.[11]
