You might be interested to know that Eqaudor has adopted Nature Rights into their constitution
as of Sept of 2008. The actual articles I have included in the Earth Charter Group.

Also there is conjecture that Biocapacity constitutes a new Law of Nature. Although this is not widely debated as yet. Also I am working on the Climate Dollar proposal and the Uniecobudget Group to formulate a mechanism to mitigate between the rights of humans and the rights of nature as well as form a framework for a new ecological economics system and theory. If youre interested in these perhaps I could share some of my documents.
anyway
Thanks
