HH Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji joined the powerful and essential online Interfaith Call for Ecocide Law, as interfaith leaders from around the world came together to create an international, inter-religious coalition advocating for Ecocide to become an international crime recognised by the International Criminal Court.
Ecocide is the destruction of the natural environment by deliberate or negligent human action, and at no other time in human history has the need for this designation been more apparent or more necessary to combat the devolution of our planet.
