In my feminist theories class, one of the feminist theories we have discussed is ecofeminism.
"Ecofeminists highlight the multiple ways in which human beings oppress each other, but these theorists also focus on human beings' domination of the nonhuman world, or nature... [which is] shaped by an oppressive patriarchal conceptual framework, the purpose of which is to explain, justify, and maintain relationships of domination and subordination"
This is a comic I got a long time ago from my social psychology class as an undergraduate... I think it's an interesting illustration of part of that hierarchy that ecofeminism critiques...
