Gender in the modernisation of waste management: Key lessons from fieldwork in Bhutan, Mongolia, and Nepal
The waste sector is a significant and growing source of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Most developing countries are minor contributors to global GHG, and produce limited emissions from municipal solid waste. However, as poor countries become integrated into global circuits of production and consumption, their contributions to global GHG emissions are likely to increase concomitantly. National and local governments and international agenc…
Re-imagining the driver–pressure–state–impact–response framework from an equity and inclusive development perspective
The Driver–Pressure–State–Impact–Response (DPSIR) framework has been used by environmental agencies and others to assess environmental challenges and policy responses. However, in doing so, social justice or equity issues tend to come as an afterthought, while there is evidence that environmental challenges and policy responses are not equity (including gender-) neutral. Hence, this paper addresses the question: why should, and how can, equity is…
Radical Observation
Radical Observation Joni Seager (bio) Before Rachel Carson exposed the dangers posed by chemical pesticides, she was a chronicler of the ocean. Raised far from any sea, Carson became one of its most famous environmental interlocutors. Born in rural Pennsylvania in 1907, Carson's mother inculcated in her a love of nature, and a mentor at the Pennsylvania College for Women—now Chatham College—steered her toward marine biology. The rest, as they say…

Death by Degrees: Taking a Feminist Hard Look at the 2° Climate Policy
International policy-makers are forging a consensus that a 2° rise in global temperature represents an acceptable level of danger to the planet. This is not based on climate science. This article explores how feminist analysis and perspectives on climate change can help to reveal the gendered political and ideological underpinnings of this approach to climate change
Gender and water: Good rhetoric, but it doesn’t “count”
Gender and Water in Mongolia
Global institutions, academics, and practitioners have long acknowledged the need to consider gender in creating sustainable water management plans. However, for most countries a dearth of context-specific information on gender and water relations hinders gender-sensitive plan development. Mongolia is particularly poorly represented in the gender and water literature. This article presents fieldwork revealing distinctive gendered practices around…

Pepperoni or Broccoli? On the Cutting Wedge of Feminist Environmentalism
Feminist environmentalism has become a significant intellectual and social policy force across fields as diverse as public health, political economy, philosophy, science, and ecology.
