Chellis Glendinning (born 1947) is an author and activist. She has been called a pioneer in the concept of ecopsychology—the belief that promoting environmentalism is healthy.[1][2] She is a social-change activist with an emphasis on feminism, bioregionalism, and indigenous rights.[3] She promotes human cultures which are land-based and confined to bioregions, and is a critic of the use of technology.[4]
