description To undertake the task of writing some lines referring to feminisms and environmental issues means talking about conceptual weavings that, from my point of view, are at the forefront of thought in this 21st century. The set of voices (as a metonymic figure) that belong to the subjects who speak and think from these perspectives allows us to visualise snapshots of the critical thought installed in this present of unrest. Although nowadays there is a consensus that certain explanations fall short of their purpose if they do not cross disciplinary boundaries (we talk a lot about inter- and trans-disciplines), there are very few that point out the correspondences with a field that has long been recognised as environmental or ecological problems. Hence the radical nature of Haraway's gesture, whose point of view is rooted in this "compost" that hints at a way of doing theory.  This idea of mixing, and of systemic, biological and emotional interdependence is today a provocative gesture; proposed as an epistemological orientation, it provides with a reflection that hinges on creative thinking, and that can perhaps account for the complex situations of contemporary life.

El conjunto de las voces (como figura metonímica) de los sujetos que hablan y piensan desde estas perspectivas nos permite visualizar las fotos del pensamiento crítico instalado en este presente de desasosiego. Si bien había un acuerdo en que ciertas explicaciones no son suficientes sin traspasar las fronteras disciplinares (hablamos mucho de inter y transdisciplinas), son muy pocas las que señalan las correspondencias con un espacio que hace tiempo se está reconociendo como estudios ambientales o ecológicos. De allí la radicalidad del gesto de Haraway cuyo punto de vista se sostiene en ese “compost” que señala un modo de hacer teoría. Esta idea de mezcla y de interdependencia sistémica, biológica, y emotiva, es hoy un gesto provocativo que propone como orientación epistemológica una reflexión que se expresa en un pensamiento creativo y que tal vez pueda dar cuenta de situaciones complejas de la vida contemporánea.
