The virtual Third Tuesday Talk series hosted by Sierra Club’s Cape Cod & Islands Group continues March 17th at 7pm with an introduction to the “Rights of Nature” movement, including notable successes and practical challenges in protecting the rights of rivers, species, and habitats. This event is free and open to all; time will be reserved for audience Q&A.
 
Featured Speaker
 
Will Falk is Co-Coordinator of Community Resistance & Resilience and provides legal and consulting services for the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund. He is a writer, lawyer, and environmental activist. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison Law School and practiced as a public defender before pursuing frontline environmental activism. This work has taken him to an indigenous cultural center and pipeline blockade on unceded Wet’suwet’en territory in British Columbia, to a construction blockade on Mauna Kea in Hawai’i, to endangered pinyon-juniper forests in the Great Basin, and to Thacker Pass in northern Nevada where Will is trying to stop an open-pit lithium mine from destroying a beautiful mountain pass. Will’s first book How Dams Fall describes his relationship with the Colorado River in the context of his efforts to help file the first-ever U.S. federal lawsuit seeking rights for a major ecosystem. His second book When I Set the Sweetgrass Down is a collection of poems written from the frontlines of land defense campaigns.
