Mount Taranaki Granted Legal Personhood

  • A historic moment unfolded in New Zealand as the country's Parliament passed a law that granted Mount Taranaki, also known as Taranaki Maunga, legal personhood. This unprecedented decision recognises the mountain as a living entity with rights similar to those of a human being. This move is deeply rooted in the Maori people's spiritual and cultural beliefs and aims to correct past injustices while promoting environmental conservation.
  • Mount Taranaki holds immense cultural and spiritual significance for the Māori tribes. For centuries, it has been regarded not just as a mountain but as an ancestor, a figure of cultural identity. Māori people view the mountain as a living being that is central to their heritage and traditions. The recognition of Taranaki Maunga as a legal person reflects this long-standing relationship, marking a momentous step in honoring the Māori worldview and understanding of the natural world.

  • India made a significant stride in wetland conservation, with four new sites added to the prestigious Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance. This brings the total number of Ramsar sites in India to 89. Among the new additions, two wetlands from the north-eastern region, one from Gujarat, and Udhwa Lake from Jharkhand were recognised. The inclusion of these sites, especially the first-ever Ramsar recognitions for Jharkhand and Sikkim, highlights India's commitment to preserving its diverse ecosystems.
