New partnership between the Rights of Mother Earth & the Earth Focus Foundation
The Earth Focus Team is happy to announce a new partnership with the Rights of Mother Earth. Together we will continue to strive for increased environmental protection and conservation. An critical aspect of this is the on-going effort to provide representation and legal protection for nature as a whole.
To that end, the Rights of Mother Earth, is asking the UN to formally engage in drafting and adopting a Declaration of Rights of Mother Earth to complement the Human Rights Declaration. A Declaration acknowledging Nature as a living being, deserving of rights and protection just like humans.
Under current law, Nature is treated as a commodity and has no standing in court. This void in the law is at the core of the depletion and destruction endured by Nature today and must be corrected.
Proposed is the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Rights of Mother Earth The Declaration includes the wisdom and knowledge of people from ancient and modern societies from around the world and points the way to aligning our laws and ways of living with those of Nature.
