  • Western views and the legal system tend to view nature as property, and as a resource from which wealth is extracted, a commodity whose only value is to provide for human needs. But for millennia indigenous communities have viewed themselves as part of nature.
    As pressures on ecosystems mount and as conventional laws seem increasingly inadequate to address environmental degradation, communities, cities, regions and countries around the world are turning to a new legal strategy known as The Rights of Nature.
    This film takes viewers on a journey that explores the more recent origins of this legal concept, and its application and implementation in Ecuador, New Zealand, and the United States. Learn how constitutional reforms adopted in Ecuador have helped recognize nature as a legal entity, and how partnerships between the Māori and the government of New Zealand have led to personhood status for rivers, lakes and forests, and a renewed sense of balance between people and nature. See how the Rights of Nature function in the urban setting of Santa Monica, California.
    The film explores the successes and challenges inherent in creating new legal structures that have the potential to maintain and restore ecosystems while achieving a balance between humans and nature.

    Issac has done a yeoman's service by making this film. In 1885 AD, my great grandfather bought 750 acres of virgin forest, partly hilly, from the King of Patiala in India. Then, Tigers roamed and an 8 acre lake teemed with fish. I have inherited 25 acres with a barren hill, top soil washed away, lake reduced to a pond needing replenishment of water artificially and tigers replaced by domesticated dogs. I have been fighting to to restore it to its pristine state and truly appreciate the impact the film will make for mother nature.

      @@luvfacturas6467 I find that, in many cases, sharing the ideas behind the concept... without actually naming it first ....may ease those 'Human first, nature second' thinking people into the understanding that we are all part of Nature. Sometimes, sharing this link might not go over well... Especially in ignorant conservative circles who are taught to believe that the Earth is here for man's use and that their god will come take them away in a collective rapture when it gets unlivable. These are absolutely the literal concepts I was taught to believe in the southern pentecostal religious society in which I was raised. So finding ways to approach often comes in the form not of sharing links, but of sharing the simpler concepts first. Then, when proof of your POV is requested, that's the time to share the link.

    Rudolf Steiner presents a notion of science that says we can know things that go beyond what we can weight, measure, and calculate. Science is the practice of observing phenomena and relating them in a way that correctly represents the phenomena’s reality. Agricultural judgments about health, what to do where, and when to do what, best succeed when we begin to rely on a certain wisdom gained through observation and experience and when we perceive consciously and concretely the phenomena that induce life itself.

    In todays environment, mining companies, developers and their owners, executives must be held criminally responsible for any and all environmental damages and for restoring the land, and water, and no one should own more than the house they designate as their primary residence, no one should ever be taxed out of their home, or off their prosperity, there should never be rental apartments that allows owners to raise rents beyond the renters ability to afford, and I completely agree with this documentary’, protecting nature rights should always be paramount.
    The indigenous people of North America, did not understand private land ownership, the land belonged to nature and the animals, thus they never took lightly anything that effected the land, always taking into account how future generations would be affect.
    Only corporation and those who saw themselves as superior to others, created private ownership to exploit the land and natural resources. This ideology, fundamental to capitalism must change, the wealthy, do not own this planet, nor the religious or whoever, if anything, depending on one ideology, and views, nature or God owns this earth and we are nothing but stewards, and thus it’s caretakers, preserving it for future generations, animals, to include all oceans and sea life.

    Best documentary that captures today’s existential times of ecological crisis. It informs of just how delicate the balance of Life is and how laws created in the context of Monkey Mind are designed to be good for some but hell for everyone else.
    We all stand on the shoulders of our ancestors and the worst enemy they suffered in the past, is the same enemy in the 21st century. Monkey Mind is the default mind program of our species that is operating in the background of every person’s life (past-present-future). From peasants to kings, from popes to presidents, from farmers to chefs, from students to professors, etcetera ad nauseam, Monkey Mind functions in us all. Efforts to elevate human civilisation beyond our feces-flinging ancestors have had limited success (just watch a political debate to see for yourself)! For all things are subject to impermanence, including death! But Monkey Mind endures! What Monkey Mind creates for itself, Monkey Mind returns back to it, and there’s no planet B to escape to.
    The root cause for all the problems on this Planet of the Apes is Monkey Mind, and has 3 elements that are common to all other animals:
    1) Limitless Greed - nothing is enough for us, specially if it’s pleasurable to the sense body. Grasping for control of others. Hoarding of things.
    2) Restless Fear - there is no certainty in life, except uncertainty. Uncertainty is certain. But uncertainty brings fear, anxiety, and confusion.
    3) Impassive Dominance - Monkey Mind seeks highest position on the tree, specially when threatened. Grasping for higher status, reaching for higher titles, fighting for loftier positions, killing under the banner of God, are all forms of dominance. It’s alpha vs beta vs omega vs sigma vs….
    Though many have worked to breakthrough Monkey Mind and transformed into good human beings, many more are left in ignorance (including powerful leaders) to figure it out. Wisdom must now be bought as everything is monitized. To be born in human form is the highest blessing, because humans can do the greater good! If waiting for other blessings, you won’t wait long enough!
    To transform Monkey Mind, practicing mindfully these 3 virtues can turn the Wheel of Becoming:
    1) Generosity - you will always have more than another in need. Kindness doesn’t cost a thing and making others’ happy has tangible benefits that make you happy! This singular virtue can yield great Karma merit (Karma points).
    2) Trust - is a form of radical acceptance. Trust establishes integrity on which relationships and civilizations are formed. Trust yourself, trust others, trust God!
    3) Abide - we all become softer in old age, not out of weakness, but out of wisdom! Be soft like water and flow in Nature’s time. Be rigid like ice and you’ll crack or shatter. Water is our true nature and it seeks lowest level. The dominant submit the small by overhead tactics. The small usurp and overturn the mighty by kneeling lower. Practicing mindfulness mediation can generate a calm-abiding mind and greatly reduces suffering (locally and globally). Water is the most powerful organism of Nature: it extinguishes fire, wears down rock, and permeates everything. Like our soul/life-force/Qi/dusha/spirit/inner-light, it transmutes states from solid, to liquid, to vapor and back again, in cycles of becoming.

    If it was not for the land there would be no human,the land has more rights than us. I live in a city not through choice and I crave to see land but I'm left with setting my eyes on buildings and pollution which is making me sick,I have thought since child how these organisations has and still are literally killing our beautiful planet and all species of life that dwell upon it. The only way I can help at the moment is heal by playing my shamanic drum and turning away from g.m.o. ,toxins and chemicals and spreading the word. My drum a healer and my work has begun many wild life fly outside my window when my beater strikes down and I play. We can heal our earth in many ways and we can all take part in our planet healing process as she foes so desperately need the healing ,she cries in pain and I hear her sadness when she speaks to me ,I'm horrified it's come to this and this generation of children born into cities some would now never get to experience what a lake is a tree a forest ,wildlife which is so sad,even looking up clouds are no longer clouds but smoggy pollution, this generation of city children would not know how to survive nature and live of the land as this right has been stolen from them and me also ,I feel kicked off my own land and forced to function in a way spirit did not intend me to,I have my own plan and I hope that I can manifest it quickly before this city brings me to a saddened death far from what I came here for. But my calling has stated that all will be OK just in for a rough ride this planet and now all must stand and fight in a harmonious way and take back what belongs to us and every living thing ,which is everything so we can continue to help God be all knowing, we came here for an experience not to be poisoned,destroyed and imprisoned in a town or city.

    We have strict laws in India to protect nature and natural resources. We have laws to protect tribals, recognizing their rights under Indian Constitution. We also have laws for preservation of our natural wealth as well as protect tribal lands.
    Problems:
    The population itself is a huge problem.
    Unplanned urbanization
    Lack of awareness among people. Whatever students learn in school are neglected by the adults.
    CORRUPTION in the govt at all levels, prevent implementation of Laws and protective measures.
    Central Govt and State Govt are reluctant to implement of Conservation and Preservation laws.
    Huge constructions were made destroyed large part of National Parks in the Norther part of the country.
    Hills are being blown up by political leaders in govt to sale as stone chips .
    Trees are cut illegally in forest areas by mafias and govt officials earn some extra out of it.
    River pollution is highest.
    While some local communities are working hard to bring awareness to the society rest are raising resistant backed by strong political funding.
    Wet lands are being sold to real estate agents in the eastern part of the country.
    Tribal lands are being acquired for mining.

    There seems to be an unusual amount of morality taking place in this example. Whatever the mechanism, we must protect and respect our environment, with humility, not immediately engineering it to our conformity. In the long run, we are in nature’s control, not the other way sound.
    The thinking reflected in this film is such a minority opinion, as reflected by the way we manage, and interact with our resources for survival. We are running rough shod over our resources and survivability.
    This film made me wonder if mankind started its descent when we discarded this common “indigenous” idea that we are care takers and partners with nature. It’s been downhill from there. But then again, our population has also exploded since the days of imperialism. It’s hard to dissect the two effects.
    Just too many people these days.

    @47,47 after feeling down about the issues with mining and trouble of enforcing the rights of patcha mama/mother earth...I felt happy with what was expressed; we must start to see that we ate no crown of creation (as christianity teaches) but a part of nature. I also think, as was also expressed in this documentary; urban living is a great problem. Because it detached us, children no longer know where their water or food comes from, nor how natural cycles work...etc. but we have to teach them and teach ourselves. We need to act now, as individuals to do all we can in our own lives to damage nature as little as possible and to help it as much as possible. To give back...to plant, to speak up...anything. Personally I'm whole food vegan, but local, seasonal and obviously do not support the factory farming systems nor the huge mono cultures of feed or palm oil...that cause 60% of deforestation. I avoid processed foods as much as possible. I definitely avoid food, makeup etc that contain palm oil. I consider waste and avoid fast fashion and plastic; to the best of my ability. I'm also against planned obsolescence of tech and for the right to repair. I prefer buying 2nd hand, aim for my own economy being as circular as possible...awaiting the paradigm shift toward this in the larger economy. It's going to be a necessary move, just as the move away from the horrendously resource (water, petrochemicals etc) heavy factory farming.
