"Lawyers are shaking off the profession’s dusty old image, as they join campaigners to protect the planet and find creative ways to transform business as usual." - @PioneersPost Read about our work and other lawyers fighting for Nature here: immersives.pioneerspost.com/lawyers-leadin…
Our latest blog post by Luna Andersen, analysing the forthcoming EU 'comparable to ecocide' Directive. Despite not going as far as the Stop Ecocide campaign pushed for, it is nonetheless a monumental development in environmental law. 👉lawyersfornature.com/european-union…
Destruction of a precious ancient bluebell woodland in the Kent countryside under a deluge of illegal landfill waste shows the utter failure of environmental law, complete inaction by the authorities & increasing lawlessness in the UK. Let me tell you the story of Hoads Wood 🧵
Our latest blog post on business and nature in light of the recent @comclimatelaw Opinion. Recognising ecological entanglements of business is significant -- but it's vital to go beyond awareness. How about businesses respecting Rights of Nature? 👉lawyersfornature.com/nature-aware-t…
Nature on the Board has been featured on #TheArchers! We are so proud to see the Nature on the Board movement continue to grow and this is fantastic work by the BBC, helping to push the concept into the mainstream. Listen below! @BBCRadio4 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
What happens when a 200 year old oak tree takes the Secretary of State for Climate and Ecological Breakdown to court? Lucy Neal shares her experience of staging a play to imagine a future in which a Rights of Nature court case takes place. lawyersfornature.com/ring-of-truth/
Rights of Nature in The Times! An excellent article by @henryfabird following our government’s poorly argued dismissal of the concept last week. This piece points to the key role of guardianship in bringing about a Rights of Nature approach in the UK. link.thetimes.co.uk/view/62e2a8a33…
“It is only by once again regarding Nature as sacred and then putting that sacredness into practice in our legal, political, economic and social systems, that we have any chance of truly saving the river that you love.” - @paulpowlesland youtube.com/watch?v=tZRMBg…
"We live on a planet with finite resources, and the capitalism model does not support that. We need to explore ways to do business that reflect the impact that we have.” - Hannah Cox (@betternotstop) The Better Business Network puts Nature on the Board: lawyersfornature.com/the-better-bus…
It turns out Better Business DOES mean Nature sits on the Board... We spoke to the Network and their first Nature Director: lawyersfornature.com/the-better-bus… @betterb_network
"I believe that the Rights of Nature will be to the 21st Century what human rights were to the 20th Century and we're just at the start of that journey." - @paulpowlesland Read about the ceremony held to recognise the importance of the River Wye here: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
📢Today Herefordshire became first local council in UK to welcome a river as part of the council. Conservative led @HfdsCouncil conducted ceremony for #Wye pledging to “bring the river into the council”, leading the way in recognising essential role of rivers in fabric of life🧵
“RoN developments are vital to ensure protection of the natural world, which in turn secures the healthy environment humans need. It’s obvious that our existing political system and regulatory regimes have failed to prevent ecological destruction.” indiaeducationdiary.in/rights-of-natu…

We are so pleased that the hardwork of @RightsOfNature and @ClaireNevin8 on behalf of Lawyers For Nature has led to this - Ireland is one step closer to a constitutional amendment enshrining the Rights of Nature!

Paul Powlesland, Barrister and founder of @LawForNature, exposes the scale and environmental impact of the illegally dumped waste at Hoads Wood in Kent. The shocking inaction of multiple authorities demonstrates the broken system for nature protection in the UK. #RescueHoadsWood
Destruction of a precious ancient bluebell woodland in the Kent countryside under a deluge of illegal landfill waste shows the utter failure of environmental law, complete inaction by the authorities & increasing lawlessness in the UK. Let me tell you the story of Hoads Wood 🧵

Law is something we make & could just as easily make differently. Imagination is a key tool for exploring what a legal system that protects & respects nature would look like. I enjoyed acting as a barrister with @WalkingForest4, where I got to draft the law I was relying on!

Fantastic blog by my inspirational colleague @lucyhneal my alternative career was always to be a barrister and I got the chance here to pit myself against @paulpowlesland I lost unsurprisingly !

A tree taking the government to court? Yes please. Sounds fanciful? Ecocide will be part of our legislature sooner than you think. #rightsofnature @WoodlandTrust @lucyhneal @AncientTreesATF @SteveBarclay @CatherineWest1 @mikehakata @XRHaringey @TheStreetTree @paulpowlesland

200 yr-old Oak wins legal case! "The arts can help to imagine, galvanise and speed things up" says playwright Lucy Neal, winning people over before the work of obtaining legal #RightsForNature can really begin @MayaPardo1 @CHeinemeyer @movementrights @bel_jacobs @merylbatchelder

💧"I believe that the #RightsofNature will be to the 21st Century what human rights were to the 20th Century and we're just at the start of that journey." - @paulpowlesland @LawForNature Read about the ceremony to recognize the importance of River Wye 🇬🇧bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
Although I’m usually an ‘estuarine & mildly salty water’ kind of guy, I’m happy to be infiltrating the hallowed & less saline halls of the London Freshwater Group to speak on why London’s rivers need Rights of Nature & Guardianship.
SPRING 2024 LFG MEETING - 15th Mar We are very excited to confirm another fantastic agenda of aquatic science talks for the upcoming London Freshwater Group meeting! Tickets: Please confirm attendance/reserve your space: eventbrite.com/e/london-fresh…
It was an honour to represent nature on some of the panels at the @betterb_network summit in January. This article is a good summary of how nature came to be represented at a business summit. @LawForNature @betternotstop
It turns out Better Business DOES mean Nature sits on the Board... We spoke to the Network and their first Nature Director: lawyersfornature.com/the-better-bus… @betterb_network
@LawForNature @paulpowlesland Is it possible to attribute legal rights to the river? See Atrato river in Colombia theconversation.com/can-a-river-ha… Fundamental human rights are recognised across much of the world. Humans cant exist without the natural world. So should we also award rights to environmental entities?
📢Today Herefordshire became first local council in UK to welcome a river as part of the council. Conservative led @HfdsCouncil conducted ceremony for #Wye pledging to “bring the river into the council”, leading the way in recognising essential role of rivers in fabric of life🧵
.@paulpowlesland of @LawForNature attended,“What is happening here is ground-breaking. I believe that the rights of nature will be to the 21st century what human rights were to the 20th century, and we’re just at the start of that journey.”
We are taking a very serious crisis not seriously enough! 🎙️🌿 Join us in this week’s episode with Paul Powlesland, a barrister and eco warrior, where he talks about the importance of addressing climate change urgently. @paulpowlesland @LawForNature @gardencourtlaw @AlvinCarpio
