There are a multitude of ways we can connect with nature with many people actively working to protect our natural life-support systems.
With this in mind, I wanted to do more than simply write and draw about my understanding of the human relationship with nature. I am therefore donating twenty-five percent of the profits from this collection of poems to Client Earth.
Combating environmental crimes through legal interventions is one of the most powerful ways we can address nature’s destruction and the climate emergency.
Client Earth’s work is becoming ever-more vital as national governments seek to
inhibit peoples’ right to protest through imposing laws to curtail direct action.
Client Earth is a team of over 250 people across eight offices, dedicated to protecting life on Earth. They work in over fifty countries, ingeniously using the law to create systemic change. They focus on the most pressing environmental challenges, because a future in which people and planet thrive together isn't just possible ̶ it's essential.
