Hello everyone,
I am new to this list and new to the concept of ecofeminism as well.
I am wondering two things: (1) any suggestions on books/articles to
provide me with an overview of ecofeminism? (I've read one book by
Gaard), and (2) as an environmental planning graduate, I am curious
about any links with planning or thoughts on applying ecofeminist
concepts/ideas to planning practice or theory. Thanks for your
thoughts.

<< While I'm joining the rant--I'd like to mention my own current
focus of fear and environmental loathing: HAARP! The U.S. military has
gone over the edge with this one. Has anyone else heard about this? So far,
it's been VERY under-reported considering the potential threat. I have done
some e-mail alerts in various places, but feel pretty helpless as an
activist in this case. Any suggestions? >>
I haven't heard of this. Can someone fill me in?? Thanks.
