Abstract
‘Rights to Nature’ is a concept that is gaining momentum across the world. According to this principle, elements of nature – such as a lake or river, a forest or wetland – has legal rights of its own, similar to the rights that humans enjoy. This is not just an abstract philosophical concept about whether nature has a right to be protected for her own sake. It has concrete, practical, everyday implications.
