A1 and 3
B1 and 4
C2 and 3
D1, 3 and 4 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 1, 3 and 4 — Pairs 1, 3 and 4 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 3 and 4.
Explanation
★Pairs 1, 3 and 4 are correctly matched, so the answer is 1, 3 and 4.
★Ernst Haeckel coined the term ecology in 1866 for the study of organisms and their environment.
★Francoise d'Eaubonne coined the term ecofeminism in 1974, linking ecology and feminism.
★Vandana Shiva is a leading ecofeminist, famous for Staying Alive and the Chipko movement.
★Pair 2 is wrong, because ecocentrism is deep ecology, not shallow ecologism.
★Shallow ecologism seeks to balance development with the environment, that is, sustainable development.
★Deep ecology or ecocentrism instead treats nature as having intrinsic value of its own.
