UN Year of the Ocean and the Rights of Nature - Has Their Time Come?
Alex Lenferna SEACC SF Chairperson
The Rights of Nature Movement (www.theRightsofNature.org) has been
growing globally, and, if you're interested, at COP 17 and beyond they
are asking for your support. If you will be at COP 17 and would like
to help out please contact Elana Farr <el...@greencounsel.co.za>.
As many of you will know this year was the United Nations Year of the
Forests. The Sustainable Seas Trust is calling for 2012 to be named
the United Nations Year of Coasts and Oceans, in recognition of the
important role that coasts and ocean play in maintaining global
health. For more info visit: <http://sst.org.za/pages/14?project_id=3>

Yours in solidarity towards a more just and sustainable future,
