Who’s Paying the Price for Environmental Violence?

from The Politics and Rights Review Podcast · host Karel J. Leyva

In this episode, we examine the concept of environmental violence as a pressing human rights issue. Inspired by the article published in Politics and Rights Review, we discuss how global pollution, resource exploitation, and systemic inequalities disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, creating a crisis of planetary justice. From the United Nations' recent recognition of the right to a healthy environment to the challenges of achieving sustainable living, we analyze the far-reaching impacts of environmental harm on human health, mortality, and well-being. We also explore potential solutions, including regenerative practices and collective efforts to redefine human progress within planetary boundaries. Can humanity move toward a future that prioritizes both ecological and human flourishing? Read the full article here: https://politicsrights.com/environmental-violence-human-right/
