About the event
We will use examples from Chile, Germany, and the U.S. midwest to see how people are attempting to legally establish the rights of the natural world and discuss how different possible energy futures will impact the rights of nature. Does approaching a problem from the perspective of the "rights of nature" meaningfully differ from the perspective of "enviornmental impacts"? Can renewable energy help to ensure the rights of nature?
