A veteran environmentalist shares her roadmap to a healthier
world—one that uses the law to empower activists and provide hope
for communities everywhere. We have reached a critical tipping
point in our fight for the environment: Corporations profit off
climate change, natural disasters devastate homes, and the most
vulnerable suffer the health effects of pollution. Yet our laws are
designed to accommodate this destruction rather than prevent it.
Without government support, it’s no wonder people feel powerless.
But there is a solution. In The Green Amendment, veteran
environmentalist Maya K. van Rossum presents her radically simple
plan for a green future: bypass local laws and turn to the ultimate
authority—our state and federal constitutions—to ensure we have
the right to a healthy environment. Through compelling interviews
with activists on the ground, clear evidence from experts, and
heartbreaking stories from those hit hardest by environmental ruin,
The Green Amendment lights the path forward. In this updated
edition of her trailblazing 2017 book, van Rossum invites readers
to join the movement by sharing: Why Green Amendments work where
other movements have failed How to position Green Amendments and
what specific language offers the strongest legal protections How
to argue in favor of environmental rights, and the economic and
health benefits that will help activists make the case How Green
Amendments address the crucial intersection of environmentalism and
anti-racism What everyone—from artists and students to scientists
and lawyer—can do to further the cause With the power of The
Green Amendment, we can claim our environmental rights, ensuring a
clean, safe Earth for generations to come.
