Mother Pelican - A Journal of Sustainable Human Development
Theme - The Coupling of Gender Equality & Clean Energy

SUMMARY
Two leaps forward are needed to attain the transition from consumerism 
to sustainability: a leap from sexism to gender equality, and a leap 
from fossil fuels to clean energy. The April 2011 issue was focused on 
gender equality for human development. This issue reiterates the need 
for gender equality and addresses another crucial need: the transition 
from fossil fuels to clean energy. The influence of the patriarchal 
religious mindset in reinforcing gender inequities and exploitation of 
natural resources is discussed. If religion is part of the problem, it 
must be part of the solution. Resolving gender and sustainability issues 
will require radical reforms in both social and religious institutions.
