Historically, women have been at the forefront of environmental movements, from Rachel Carson’s groundbreaking work with "Silent Spring" which sparked the modern environmental movement, to indigenous women leading conservation efforts within their communities. Their contributions are undeniable, yet there’s an imperative to not only recognize but also amplify their roles in shaping environmental ethics today. Despite progress, women are often underrepresented in decision-making positions within environmental organizations and policy-making bodies. To genuinely honor their legacy, active steps must be taken to ensure their voices are not only heard but are instrumental in guiding environmental policies and practices.
