"The Rights of Nature" is an inspiring and thought-provoking exploration of a revolutionary idea: that nature itself — rivers, forests, mountains, and entire ecosystems — can hold legal rights just like humans and corporations do. This book traces the origins of the movement, from indigenous worldviews to modern constitutional reforms, and explains why giving nature legal standing could reshape environmental protection worldwide. Readers will discover real cases from countries that recognize rivers or forests as legal persons, the debates among lawyers and activists, and the practical challenges of enforcing these rights. Accessible yet profound, it invites students, scholars, and everyday readers to reconsider humanity’s role as a steward of the Earth and imagine a future where the law defends the living planet.
