Rights of Nature Panel

Thomas Linzey, Esq is spearheading a social-justice environmental movement in the U.S., by uniting municipal communities across the nation, and around the world, to challenge obsolete, status-quo laws at the Federal, and State level; laws that only serve the Ruling Class at the expense of the rest of the world. He starts at 34:58 into this video.

You can hear more discussion of these issues at Democracy Matters. Here is a Podcast audio where Linzey & Margil Discuss Regulatory Vs. Rights Based Law. "Nature is our slave." http://ow.ly/1sPkcp
