Stadt Natur Rechte - Was Bienen und Bäume dürfen müssen

Mexico City is home to two percent of the world's animal and plant species. The biodiversity of New York City has more than doubled since its founding. In an era of climate change and species extinction, a question arises with growing urgency: how can we renegotiate coexistence within the city - one of the most underestimated ecosystems - and establish principles for pan-ecological participation?

The Rights of Nature, which place humans and the environment on an equal footing, offer a promising opportunity. In San José, for example, bees are actively included in urban planning, the Seine was recently made an honorary citizen of Paris, and in San Francisco Bay, whales and dolphins are granted a kind of right of way. This book is a call to rethink our understanding of our non-human neighbors.
