Klappentext
A clear, hopeful strategy for a safer, cleaner, fairer planet from a leading legal expert
Too often the well-being of humans and the planet are pitted against each other, but in this groundbreaking and inspiring book, lawyer David Boyd shows that environmental rights are an essential part of human rights. We can protect people and nature at the same time. Courts all over the world are starting to agree, setting legal precedents that can force governments to take better care of people and nature now and for generations to come.
Life Support draws on Boyd's experiences as the United Nations special rapporteur on human rights and the environment, describing how lawyers, politicians, and communities all over the world have harnessed the right to secure cleaner air, safer water, healthier food, and less toxic environments while also addressing the climate and biodiversity crises.
While the news of the day is often bleak, Boyd highlights people who are making incredible strides toward a brighter, cleaner, fairer future for all who share this planet.
