Words of encouragement from Oregon Community Rights Network: Promoting and Protecting Rights of Nature

In the arc of movements, legal rights of nature is defying the odds. In a very short amount of time since the first effort to take the concept and put it into practice emerged in 2006, legal rights of nature has become a global effort. The understanding and the drive to put nature first is no longer a way of life carried just by First Peoples, it is nearing critical mass, such that a rights of nature existence is inevitable. As movements start with the possible, often conflicting with the status quo, then with time, effort, loss, heart ache, and more effort, there is a threshold crossed where the possible surpasses the limits of the probable and becomes the new way.” Rights of Nature is a movement whose time has come.
