25 April 2020<\/em>
\nGlobal Climate Strike 5!<\/em><\/p>\n

This ongoing inaction…<\/em><\/p>\n

…of people in power…<\/em><\/p>\n

…and the companies responsible…<\/em><\/p>\n

…will in the future, no doubt,<\/em><\/p>\n

…be remembered…<\/em><\/p>\n

…as a crime against humanity.<\/em><\/p>\n

We are legally advising<\/em>
\non ECOCIDE CRIME…<\/em><\/p>\n

…to become an international crime<\/em>
\nat the International Criminal Court.<\/em><\/p>\n

ECOCIDE is: the extensive damage, <\/em>
\ndestruction to or loss of ecosystems.<\/em><\/p>\n

Existing law does not go far enough<\/em>
\nin terms of stopping serious harm,<\/em><\/p>\n

….ecological harm and climatic harm.<\/em>
\nWe are talking about criminal law here,<\/em><\/p>\n

…so you’re looking at CEO’s, <\/em>
\ndirectors, ministers, heads of state…<\/em><\/p>\n

…who can be held to account<\/em>
\nwithin an international criminal court.<\/em><\/p>\n

We will make sure that…<\/em><\/p>\n

…they will not get away<\/em>
\nwith it any longer!<\/em><\/p>\n

Government and corporate individuals<\/em>
\nare recklessly disregarding…<\/em><\/p>\n

…their ecological <\/em>
\nand climate responsibilities.<\/em><\/p>\n

As a lawyer <\/em>
\nI know there is a missing crime!<\/em><\/p>\n

To criminalize serious harm to our Earth<\/em>
\nis to make Ecocide a crime.<\/em><\/p>\n

(( it’s a crime against humanity ))<\/em><\/p>\n

It is a crime <\/em>
\nthat shall protect communities…<\/em><\/p>\n

…from the worst excesses<\/em>
\nof ecological and climate ecocide.<\/em><\/p>\n

Putting this crime in place<\/em>
\nis a game changer on a global scale.<\/em><\/p>\n

And it will take all those who care<\/em>
\nto make it happen.<\/em><\/p>\n

As a lawyer I have spent years<\/em>
\nmastering my brief, asking…<\/em><\/p>\n

“How can we best safeguard our Earth?”<\/em><\/p>\n

Now I have created an <\/em>
\nEarth Protectors Trust Fund.<\/em><\/p>\n

The campaign that we put in place<\/em>
\nis to invite people to actually…<\/em><\/p>\n

…put money into our<\/em>
\nEarth Protectors Trust Fund…<\/em><\/p>\n

…to help fund <\/em>
\ntaking ecocide law forward.<\/em><\/p>\n

That document means that <\/em>
\nyou are now signed up…<\/em><\/p>\n

…as a Trustee of the Earth and you can use<\/em>
\nthat in court as documentary evidence…<\/em><\/p>\n

…to show that you are not just saying<\/em>
\nthat you are a conscientious protector.<\/em><\/p>\n

That document itself<\/em>
\nis cogent evidence to say:<\/em><\/p>\n

“I am seeking to have the law changed<\/em>
\nto protect the Earth.”<\/em><\/p>\n

…to prevent what could be<\/em>
\nthe most catastrophic disaster of our time.<\/em><\/p>\n
