We are please to announce that on 5th April at 18:00-19:30, UKELA will be holding a Careers Advice Session with Directors at Lawyers for Nature, Brontie Ansell and Paul Powlesland. Anyone is welcome to attend the free, informal Zoom session, but spaces are limited to 25 so you are encouraged to create a UKELA account and book your spot via this page as soon as possible.
Once Brontie and Paul have spoken, there will be plenty of opportunity to ask any questions so please do come prepared. The sessions will be recorded and made available on the UKELA (UK Environmental Law Association) website so please don't worry if you are unable to join a particular event. We will also aim to host the video ourselves on the Lawyers for Nature website and share on our Discord.


Lawyers for Nature is proud to be associated with UKELA (UK Environmental Law Association), the leading membership organisation for anyone interested in environmental law. Their aim is to improve understanding and awareness of environmental law - to make better law for the environment. We encourage you to subscribe to their newsletter and become a member for a range of benefits.

When I was born, CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere were 348 parts per million. This year, the concentration rose to 421 PPM; the highest levels seen in 3 to 5 million years and far higher than any level previously experienced by human civilisation. The climate and ecological crises this simple fact gives rise to will be the single most important part of all our lives, whether we know it yet or not.

This is the second blog post in a series of three. The first blog post looked at what it means to be for Nature, in particular the idea of social ecology. This second blog post will look at how we understand society. The third in the series will then look at what this means for law, expanding from Earth Jurisprudence to what I have termed ‘Interconnected Law’.
