RoN is inextricable from the imperialist history of “rights”---modeling nature on the white, European, male property-owner excludes marginalized folks, diminishes respect for non-human entities, and revives rights to “food” and “health” that protect big pharma and agribusiness that hurt the environment---only a radical restorying that reimagines rights solves.

How can the law account for the value of complex, nonhuman entities such as rivers, lakes, forests and ecosystems? At a time of runaway climate change, when the Earth’s biosphere is on the brink of collapse and species extinctions are accelerating, this has become a vital question.
