6.So, we're living today with the laws of the past and this project, defining the crime of 'ecocide', is about updating our laws to the current situation.
7.And our definition of 'ecocide' is unlawful or wanton acts, which a person commits in the knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of severe damage to the environment, which is also widespread or long-term.
8.We need a new international law of ecocide to criminalize the willful and widespread destruction of the environment, a law that criminalizes the most severe crimes against nature itself, even for acts don't involve direct human suffering.
9.Now we see small island states picking up that issue, countries like France and yes, we in the opposition, if we form a government, we want an ecocide lawto make sure that people can't cut down our rainforests.
