Ecocide
Soon, the international criminal court (ICC) may add ecocide to the four offenses that it already prosecutes (war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and the crime of aggression). Legal experts from across the globe, working under the banner of the Stop Ecocide Foundation, are proposing the ecocide be defined as “unlawful or wanton acts committed with knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of severe and widespread or long-term damage to the environment being caused by those acts”. If draft law is adopted by ICC’s members, it will be a watershed historical moment, both for humanity and the planet.
