The Rights of Nature: A Legal Revolution that Could Save the Planet

"The Rights of Nature" is a legal movement that recognizes natural ecosystems—like rivers, forests, and animals—as beings with inherent rights, similar to humans. Instead of viewing nature solely as property, this approach grants it protection and the ability to be represented in court. The goal is to promote sustainable environmental stewardship by allowing natural entities to seek legal recourse against harm. This paradigm shift aims to prioritize ecological well-being, helping to restore balance and prevent environmental destruction for future generations.
