Abstract
El avance de la degradación ambiental en todo el mundo se manifiesta año tras año en los
informes sobre cambio climático y salud de los ecosistemas. Las leyes medioambientales
vigentes desde hace 40 años en todo el mundo no han logrado frenar la pérdida de biodiversidad
ni el calentamiento global. En el paradigma occidental, la Naturaleza ha sido concebida
como un objeto para el beneficio humano y esta concepción errónea nos han conducido
al colapso actual. Es el momento para el cambio que necesitamos, en el sentido de reconocer
que el ser humano forma parte de la Naturaleza y tiene una relación de interdependencia
con ella. Este es el nuevo paradigma de la Justicia ecológica, que se concreta en una nueva
generación de derechos subjetivos: los derechos de la naturaleza. Un movimiento mundial
promueve los derechos de la naturaleza en todos los continentes y es reconocido por el
Programa de Naciones Unidas «Armonía con la Naturaleza». Este movimiento es encabezado
en Europa por la Iniciativa Legislativa Popular para dotar de personalidad jurídica y derechos
propios al Mar Menor y su cuenca.
The advance of environmental degradation around the world is evident year after year in reports on Climate Change and Ecosystem Health. The environmental laws that have been in force around the world for the past 40 years have failed to halt the loss of biodiversity and global warming. In the Western paradigm, Nature has been conceived as an object for human benefit and this misconception has led us to the current collapse. It is time for the change we need, in the sense of recognizing that human beings are part of Nature and have an interdependent relationship with it. This is the new paradigm of ecological Justice, which is embodied in a new generation of subjective rights: the rights of nature. A worldwide movement promotes the rights of nature on all continents and is recognized by the United Nations «Harmony with Nature» Program. This movement is led in Europe by the Popular Legislative Initiative to recognize the Mar Menor and its basin with legal personality and its own rights.
