Paredes.🔥 Published online on October 18, 2025, by Springer Nature, this paper doesn’t just ask why we act on climate change — it asks who we become when we do.💪 It tells the story of how feminist identity — an identity built on care, collaboration, and equity — shapes the road to environmental action. The authors reveal that people who identify as feminists don’t just see climate change as a planet problem, but as a people problem. Their empathy with nature and awareness of gendered climate impacts transform concern into action — from small sustainable choices to powerful moral commitments.🪞 Imagine this: every time a feminist sees a flooded village, a burned forest, or a silent river, they don’t just see loss; they see inequality, and that realization turns into responsibility. Through theories of ethics, psychology, and identity, the study shows how who we are can shape what we save.📚 The authors remind us that true sustainability isn’t technical — it’s ethical, compassionate, inclusive. And that’s exactly what makes the Journal of Business Ethics shine as a pillar among the world’s FT50 journals — rigorous, visionary, and deeply human.💫 Before we close, don’t forget to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Amazon Prime, and Apple Podcast, and join us visually on our YouTube channel, Weekend Researcher, where ideas spark, and research finds its voice.🙏 Heartfelt thanks to Vanessa Apaolaza, Patrick Hartmann, Virginia Rincón, and Mario R. Paredes, and to Springer Nature, for gifting us an inspiring look at the future of ethical climate action.🌈 But here’s the question to leave your mind wandering — if empathy can move mountains, could equality be the force that finally heals the Earth? 🌍💭
