Lawyers Are Responsible
A group of prominent lawyers are taking action in solidarity with all those on the frontline of the climate and ecological crises, in particular the younger generations, the peoples of the global South and those prosecuted and imprisoned for peaceful acts of conscience.
Lawyers Are Responsible aims to align the UK legal system with planetary conditions that are liveable for current and future generations by:
(i) delegitimising (whether through cultural, legal or regulatory means) legal and judicial support for acts which, according to the best available science, jeopardise the conditions which make the planet liveable; and
(ii) legitimising the acts of those who peacefully resist such conduct.
