From experts in their fields with a sharp eye to the profound connection between human rights and ecocide law, to youth, driven to protect their future, to the growing appetite here at home, we hear a variety of perspectives on how ecocide law is a critical missing piece as a guardrail and deterrent to protect the future of life on Earth.
Following the panel there will be time for more casual questions and discussion.
