Environmental Law Initiative - Aotearoa NZ

We use the law to protect the natural taonga of Aotearoa.
Too often environmental laws are poorly implemented or ignored. We're changing that. We use the law to hold regulators & corporate interests to account, for nature & future generations.

We’re underway this morning at the High Court, in our urgent case against the Minister for Oceans & Fisheries. This is the first time emergency powers have been used to protect a threatened species under the Fisheries Act. With ongoing decline of many marine species, they are an ever-important tool.
