WHAT IS FAITH FOR ECOCIDE LAW?

Faith for Ecocide Law is an interreligious coalition gathering religious and spiritual leaders and voices to express support for an international crime of Ecocide

WHAT IS ECOCIDE LAW ?

We, as people of faith 

• are deeply concerned about the ongoing destruction of our home, the Earth.
• demand a global response to prevent mass damage and destruction of ecosystems: Ecocide.
• support creating legal protection for life on Earth by including Ecocide as a crime against peace under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
