• Women and Ecology. The concept that an animal has a definite value in the framework of creation, other than how it serves man, is puzzling to many people. – Hope Ryden. He breaks the wilderness. The land is brought under his control. She makes him rich. She yields. She conceives. He is determined he will master her. What he possesses, he says, is his to use and abandon. – Susan Griffin. Nature fights hourly for the continuity of her vital cycles, under the ceaseless attack of technology and commercial greed. We who care deeply need reminding that even one committed, informed person can bring about a difference that means real hope. And there are others. Please become one of them; please give your active support. – Helaine Victoria Press.
