Collection search - Green rights: the human right to a healthy world

From The Green Interview website: "Air, water, food - these are the sources of life. Without them, we die. And in most nations - more than 180 nations, in fact - citizens are legally entitled to these essential elements of life.

"But not in Canada or the United States. And that's what the Green Rights multi-media project is all about: the human right to a healthy environment, and Mother Nature's right to be respected and protected. The citizenship of North Americans is hobbled because we don't have these green rights. Canadians and Americans literally don't know what they're missing. So we're telling the dramatic stories of how citizens use those rights in other countries - and are fighting for them here. Green rights are among humanity's most powerful tools for protecting and repairing the natural world."
