Destroying an ecosystem is not yet a crime anywhere near the scale of the damage. Jojo Mehta is running the campaign to make ecocide prosecutable at the ICC. "Right now, a CEO can authorize the destruction of an entire rainforest or river system, pay an administrative fine, and walk away with their bonus intact. But what happens when environmental destruction becomes an international criminal offense where executives face personal prison time? Today on TBLI Radical Truth, Robert Rubinstein sits down with Jojo Mehta, co-founder of Stop Ecocide International, to reveal how criminal law can fundamentally reshape corporate governance and protect the planet." Under current global law, corporations can destroy entire ecosystems and simply treat the regulatory fines as a routine cost of doing business. As long as environmental destruction is treated as an administrative violation rather than a crime, executives can destroy the living world with zero personal criminal liability. "Why do existing environmental regulations continue to allow ecological destruction to happen legally? Today, we explore why our legal system fails the planet and how to fix it—exposing the limits of environmental law, the corporate accountability gap, and how rights of nature legislation can fundamentally shift environmental protection." Learn how Stop Ecocide International is pushing to make environmental destruction a crime. Discover the movement's core mission. In this interview, Jojo Mehta explains the legal and ethical framework behind the campaign to establish ecocide as an international crime. We break down the definition of ecocide and why this organization is advocating for a formal amendment to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
