Eco- paganism
· Eco-Paganism is a strand of Contemporary Paganism.
· Eco-Pagans partly express their spirituality through environmental activism and rituals of resistance.
· Most Eco-Pagans are environmental activists who were drawn to Paganism.
In Eco-Pagan practice belief in the sacredness of nature becomes an embodiment of political commitment. As a result the sacred body is integrated in political strategies of resistance. Many Eco-Pagan beliefs are rooted in eco-philosophy, and elements of Deep Ecology and Eco-Feminism are especially evident. But Eco-Paganism is more than is an expression of a holistic belief system - it is a way of being-in-the-world. Eco-Pagan practice engenders subjective feelings of interconnectedness as well as inspiration to political activism. (Plows 1998b).
