The exploitation and oppression of women in patriarchal societies are closely associated with human supremacy and massive natural resource exploitation. The entire biotic community suffers from men’s exploitation and domination over nature, just as men’s dominance over women is harmful to the societal order, at least ethically. Therefore, understanding the worth, dignity, and necessities of every living form within the biotic community is made easier by ecofeminism, or the connection between women and earth or nature. Thus, the present paper explores the growth and development of ecofeminism which is a feminist movement that aspires to stop the dual dominance, exploitation and control of nature and women. It lays the foundation for the peaceful coexistence of men, nature, and women by encouraging the formation of a caring, loving, and sympathetic attitude toward all living things. Further, the paper also enunciates so many ecocritics, environmentalists, ecologists, ecofeminists regarding their views on ecofeminism.
