Since 2015, an unprecedented movement has been sweeping courts around the world. Groups of young plaintiffs are suing their governments for their inaction on tackling climate change. These suits argue that climate inaction violates their basic human rights. But what do human rights have to do with the environment? Shannon Odell examines our right to a healthy environment, food, health, and water.
Lesson by Shannon Odell, directed by Lorenzo Mercanti, AIM Creative Studios.

I agree with the people that are suing, we need a healthy environment to help uphold our human rights.

I'm glad they pointed out that the idea of the right to a healthy environment was started in places that we in the West often characterize as "less developed." I had no idea and I think its important for us to give our heads a shake when we start thinking too highly of ourselves as "leading the way" and developing countries as trailing behind us

Itâs sad watching some of these rights being stripped away from some people

If your Government allows you to sue, be grateful.
It means that they accept that they can be wrong too. Any government that has integrity, responsibility, and transparency will allow you to sue snd fight for your rights.

Sounds great and I do hope that the world is a better place for the future generations to live in and I hope this works for long.

While I do believe that the UDHR was a huge step forward in human rights, the fact that it is technically not a binding set of rights makes it not as effective as it should be. Many places around the world (even the US in certain cases) see this system as more of an ideal rather than a requirement, which is highly concerning in my opinion.

A supreme court case in the Philippines allowed animals to have legal standing to sue in court, especially on violations involving environmental laws, though they must still be represented by a steward

I wish we had more efficient international law enforcement and laws regarding some of the worst crimes like destruction of nature.

As a colombiana myself, I'm proud of that court decision.

Yes, we should.

âWhen he was twelve, the time had come then and with his eyes, he said he loved them. Then came the suits, then came the government. She stood and cried, she could not keep him.â DISPATCH

Even if the people won the case, the implementation of the Court's Decision is the most difficult part.

Fun fact: the original title was:" Should You Sue The Government?"
15 |
Love the artwork on this one! I wonder: could I theoretically only sue my own government, or other governments as well?
100 |
Most people forget about this clause, but the first amendment does guarantee the right to petition the government for grievances. I donât see why the destruction of the world shouldnât cover that
12 |
your content havenât failed me once I canât describe how grateful I am for having the previlege to watch your videos for free. so many videos so great content I donât ever have any remarks itâs amazing what you give us thank you
14 |

What are the consequences for citizen under dictatorial regimes trying to sue their governments? Just think about what they will sacrifice for trying to do so before answering the question.

The question should be: could we sue massive corporations and billionaires? and how can we sue when the entire system work for them and against us?
