Rights of nature

Rights of nature frameworks recognize that ecosystems, rivers, forests, and other-than-human beings have intrinsic value and standing in law—not merely instrumental value for human use. This represents a fundamental shift from treating nature as property to treating it as a subject with its own integrity that humans are accountable to.
