A compelling new legal drama series focused on environmental law is currently in development. Inspired by Monica Feria-Tinta's book, 'A Barrister For The Earth,' the series will spotlight individuals working at the forefront of environmental law. These legal professionals strive to protect the planet from the escalating impacts of climate change.
Feria-Tinta, a specialist in public international law, brings her extensive experience to the project, having championed environmental justice globally. Notably, she initiated the world's first 'rights of nature' case in Ecuador and was instrumental in a UN Human Rights Committee decision concerning a sovereign state's climate action inaction in the Torres Strait Islanders case.
Eleventh Hour Films is collaborating with global organization Climate Spring on this initiative. Climate Spring aims to transform the portrayal of climate change in popular culture. Both organizations express enthusiasm for the project, recognizing its potential to reach a broad audience and convey a message of hope through the power of law.
