INTRODUCTION – Why is this a Global Justice Issue?

The three pillars of sustainability are Environment, Social and Economic. For decades, global economies have focused on growth, often at the expense of the environment, traditional land use and land rights of indigenous people and the habitats of plant and animal species. We have wound up with systems that no longer serve people and planet, but overwhelmingly benefit multinational corporations and the already uber-wealthy, while systems of intergenerational poverty, oppression and exploitation continue.
