1. Woman Role against Climate Change

Abstract

WOMEN ROLE AGAINST CLIMATE CHANGEABSTRACTHumanity, who has always desired to realize and sustain its natural and social existence frompast to present, has a pathetically superior attitude towards the nature. Scientists are constantlygiving warnings about the global climate change, as it is a matter of survival. These warningsare actually an indicator of the fresh and fruitful sprouts of the seeds of wrath, a genius ofproductiveness that has already been planted by humans. The role of women on this debate iscrucial, as they can change the way of thinking of everyone, by their reasoning, everyday actsand behavior. The examples of Greta Thunberg and Dr. Vandana Shiva who are takingactivist action in order to point out the emergency of the situation are characteristic. Thepower of women can affect significantly the public opinion regarding the issues of eco-justiceand environmental ethics. Also, by considering social consciousness, the role of religion,through eco-theology, can be a bridge to connect the people with the nature. Furthermore,education is a protagonist factor, especially if it is considered together with motherhood, interms of bringing to life the next generation, who has every right to live in a decent and cleanenvironment.KEYWORDSClimate Change, Woman Acts, Eco-justice, Eco-theology, Environmental Ethics, Activism.
