In saying this, are you saying that only the masculine have creativity? 
This is simply not true, take the works of Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, Maya
Angelou, Georgia O'Keefe.  To be feminine is NOT a bad thing for a society
to be.  It means less cruelty, more sympathy, and a mothering instinct that
will help to clean the earth, our environment, not kill it.   You do have a
few good points about the use of fossil fuels themselves leading to our
destruction, but to say that they are feminizing is simply a poor choice of
words, even if you do have a quote ready to match up with it, as you
usually seem to.
