‘Ecocide’ – When Harm to Nature Becomes a Crime
[L’Express] In April, Parliament created an offence new to our law: ecocide. This significant step was made through the Anti-Money Laundering, Combatting the Financing of Terrorism and Countering Proliferation Financing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, which, amongst others, amended the Environment Act 2024. With this, Mauritius now belongs to a small, but growing, group of states that treat the gravest destruction of nature as a crime in its own right.
