Faith voices for ecocide law is a remarkable collection of texts, drawing on the vast wisdom, teachings and practices of the world religions and indigenous spiritual traditions. It focuses on the relationship between humans and nature in general, and on the need for a new international crime of ecocide in particular. The authors are recognised spiritual leaders in their faith traditions. Many religious traditions emphasise the responsibility to respect and protect the living world of which we are a part. The word ecocide - literally "killing one´s home" - conveys this understanding.

Faith voices for ecocide law is published by End Ecocide Sweden and Stop Ecocide International with partners: Cambridge Mosque Trust, Centre for Applied Buddhism, Green Faith, Interfaith Centre for Sustainable Development, Parliament of World's Religions, Pacific Conference of Churches, Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology and Azote.

All revenue from this book goes to work for ecocide law.
