Notes

1 In the spirit of ecofeminism (that resists patriarchal oppression and binary identities) I will initially identify each author by their full name, I may, then, refer to them by their first names and furthermore, use the pronoun ‘they’ for each. When referencing some articles, I will be retaining the family names, as alternative referring at this point might simply just create confusion and, besides, perhaps I do not have consent to disrupt the academic code to this extent. Or perhaps I just do not dare!
