CLIMATE WEEK 2026
Advancing Earth Law During Climate Week
More and more cities around the world are hosting Climate Weeks to bring together leaders, policymakers, advocates, and changemakers to accelerate solutions to the climate and biodiversity crises. At Earth Law Center, we see these global gatherings as an opportunity to build relationships, share ideas, and advance the movement for Earth-centered governance.
As the conversation continues into Climate Week NYC, we'll be participating in events, meeting with collaborators, and contributing to discussions that help shape the future of Earth law.
CLIMATE WEEK 2025
impact & highlights
Thank you to everyone who joined Earth Law Center for Climate Week NYC 2025.
Over the course of three days, Earth Law Center gathered voices from across the world including legal scholars, students, artists, activists, ecologists, community members, and long-time advocates for Nature’s rights.
Climate Week 2025 brought ecocentric law to life through a dynamic mix of events—from a multi-session summit at Fordham Law School on the NY Green Amendment and urban Rights of Nature to a packed performance of The Animals’ Lawsuit Against Humanity and an intimate walking tour exploring the soon-to-be daylighting of Tibbetts Brook in the Bronx. These moments sparked new collaborations, energized our community, and strengthened the movement towards giving Nature a voice in the legal system.

Following the 2024 premiere in New York City, we are working with communities across the world to host your own version of the play version of The Animals' Lawsuit Against Humanity, bringing this incredible event to your community! This is your chance to showcase this 1,000-year-old Earth law fable, now in theatrical form. Learn more!
