"We are either going to have a future where women lead the way to make peace with the Earth or we are not going to have a human future at all."
Dr. Vandana Shiva
For the world, ecofeminism may be a movement that began in the 1970s. But in the context of India, this women-led movement has age-old roots. Aranyani, the Goddess of the Forests, is a fearless eco-woman of Indian origin who dwells in the wild. She captures the true spirit of ecofeminism in her role in preserving trees and wildlife.
Aranyani: An Indian Ecowomen Poetry Book consisting of 44 eco-poems brings out those iconic tales, thinking, motivation, and efforts that have attracted ecological conservation and repelled destructive development. The poetic images cling to the beautiful, gladdening relationship between women and nature. The calls of Mother Earth and the eco-women of India will help nature and women outlive again!
