This is not just a personal plea, but a call that resonates with every living being on Earth and the Earth itself. The outright rejection by the UK government of Bolivia's UN proposal on the Rights of Nature is deeply concerning. This proposal seeks to recognize our planet as an entity with rights, thereby ensuring its protection and conservation for future generations.

The current stance of the UK government undermines global efforts towards environmental sustainability. According to a report by Global Witness, in 2019 alone, over 212 environmental activists were killed worldwide for defending their land and our environment (Global Witness Report, 2020). By rejecting this proposal, we are indirectly contributing to these statistics.

We urge you to reconsider your position and support this critical initiative. The Rights of Nature are fundamental for our survival and that of future generations. It's time we stand up for Mother Earth - she cannot speak for herself but we can speak for her.

Please sign this petition urging the UK Government to alter its stance on Bolivia's UN Proposal regarding Rights of Nature.
