💨 Abstract

At a book launch, Arpitha Kodiveri, an environmental lawyer and professor, discussed her book, Governing Forests. She emphasized the need for a shift in perspective towards climate law, focusing on corporate accountability, politics, and power rather than traditional environmental law. She suggested opening environmental law clinics in major law schools, gathering indigenous knowledge on climate disasters, and prioritizing community-based lawyering.
