Review:
"Finally, a page-turner that makes international environmental law accessible. The Earth on Trial leads the reader toward nature-protecting strategies of growing significance
."
-Randall Hayes, Founder and President, Rainforest Action Network
"At the heart of "The Earth on Trial is the assertion that there is a slowbut epochal shift toward enforceable obligations at the international level. Kibel is an original voice and speaks powerfully to the cumulative nature of contemporary ecology, economics, and diplomacy. Michael Watts, Director, "Institute of International Studies University of California-Berkeley."
"Kibel has written a rich collection of informed reports from the front line of environmental law. The great strength of "The Earth on Trial is its pointed interrogation of neo-liberalism and sovereignty as obstacles to more environmentally sustainable frameworks of law and governance. David Goodman, Professor of Environmental Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz."
