This week, Craig talks to Cornell Hanxomphou from the Environmental Rights Centre of Scotland. ERCS seeks to raise awareness about environmental rights in Scotland, make it easier for people to seek restitution when their rights are breached and are actively campaigning for the creation of a Scottish Environmental Court to handle cases of breaches of our rights.

ERCS has a petition to demand an enforceable right to a healthy environment here.

If you or your community think your environmental rights are at risk, their free advice centre is here

You can download their Advocacy Manifesto here.
