Information
In September 2024, Vanuatu, Fiji & Samoa formally submitted a proposed amendment to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Once accepted, it will create a new international crime of ecocide to protect our environment from the worst & most serious harms. What is the new law & what are the transformational opportunities & challenges for UK businesses, finance, farming and for our rivers & seas? How can business adapt to take advantage of the changes it will usher in?
