The rights you might not realize you have - Shannon Odell

Do you have a right to a healthy planet? Dig into the movement to hold governments accountable for climate change inaction.
--
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.

[@user-gd7ff9qf2s]

Corporations and billionaires follow the same rules (laws). I believe the problem of our era is corruption and politics. Speaking from my point of view, in my country, we have for example a minister of justice that didnt study law, a minister of economics that didnt study economics and never worked for the private sector, etc. And since I work as an architect I know from facts that the town hall supports projects when they earn something (personal gain > public gain) ;(

[@strange_and_magnificent]

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

[@maddiedenike8802]

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

I’d move from malaysia should it happen, a lot of foreigners live here for the same exact reason, other than being exchange students, or just study here. Like just just leave us alone, malaysia can be better, yes, but should it be? Not really a ques to be answered by foreigners who didn’t live here for some time and come to appreciate malaysia.

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.

The problem is, what does "suing the government" mean when the local government literally *is* the justice system ?

[@mnm1273]

There's a legal separation in between the legislature and the courts in most countries. The legislature can be found to be ignoring the law, usually due to their legislative agenda not lining up with the constitution of the country or other laws. A recent example would be the UK courts ruling that the Rwanda refugee plan is not legal given the UK's commitment to human right laws. The legislature can usually edit the constitution and pull out of international treaties, but that's often harder than passing the initial law.

[@sealplayz9329]

This is a bit of an oversimplification. Declaring things like a healthy ecosystem a human right sounds nice, however there are situations where in practice sacrifices have to be made for economic reasons. As an example, many third world countries don’t have the same filtering technology or standards to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and consequently the west makes up only 10% of all global emissions, while less developed countries make up the other 90%. The problem is if we put heavy pressure to force these countries to reduce emissions we’re removing jobs from already impoverished countries. I don’t think a desire for a healthy ecosystem trumps the rights of these countries to grow their economies and lift their people out of poverty. This is a nuanced issue, and declaring a healthy ecosystem a universal right is over-idealistic and shuts down healthy debate on the course of action most beneficial to most people.

The Universal Declaration of Humans Rights was not the first international agreement on Humans Rights as the video points out, there was already many others like the Human Rights agreement of the Organization of American States or even previous agreements under the now defunct League of Nations. It is true that The Universal Declaration of Humans Right is probably the most important one of these, but that is a mistake nothless. Also the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, although initially non binding, is by praxis obrigatory, as the International Court of Justice and other international organizations have already ruled against countries that broke them regardless of they accepting them or not.

[@sagemcallister4822]

This is still being discussed in anthropocentric terms. Humans are, developmentally, a part and product of first wilderness, and then nature. We grew from our environments and crafted for ourselves artificial landscapes (niche construction) to increase our evolutionary fitness and to facilitate the enjoyment of creature comforts. Destruction and pollution of the environment is and ought to be considered first a crime against nature, and second a crime against humanity more specifically. Approaching the matter from the wrong direction perpetuates a delusion of humankind's dominancy over nature/wilderness as opposed to its integration.
