Accidental Gods - The Thrutopian Podcast · Laws of Nature, Laws with Nature: Nature on Board with Alexandra Pimor of the Earth Law Center · 21 Jan 2026 podcast

It's confusing, and we are discovering that the law...

can be what somebody says it is in any given moment if that person holds a gun.

But then it doesn't necessarily get to be that in the long run.

So we are discussing the rights of nature, of the natural world, of the web of life of which we are an integral part.

And you are the director of the Nature Governance Agency, the NGA, within the Earth Law Centre, which has been going, as far as I can tell, since 2009, which is good and amazing.

So tell us how you came to be that and what it means for you.

So about four years ago, the Earthwell Centre partnered with Lawyers for Nature and Faith in Nature to give Nature a voice on the board of Faith in Nature.

And the question was, can we make Nature the CEO?

I think just for a second, we need to say that Faith in Nature is a business.

So for people who aren't familiar with it, just tell us a little bit about Faith in Nature before we go anywhere else.

Okay.

So Faith in Nature is an eco-beauty company based in Manchester.

And they, well, Simeon and Anne in particular, the creative directors, they were...

really keen to give nature rights within their organization the business is called faith in nature yeah right so we have faith in nature and every product everything that they are creating is in partnership with nature which is pretty amazing actually right yeah so the point is in their minds like well if we are you know if everything that we are creating is called creation with nature

then should nature have a voice on the board?

So their first question to the Earth Bill Centre and to Lawyers for Nature is, can we make nature a CEO?

And what I was told, because I wasn't there in the very, very beginning, what I was told was that the idea of making nature a CEO was a little bit, not tricky, but more...

Why should nature be the CEO if a CEO is involved in the day-to-day, you know, bogged down with executive decisions?

What's the intention behind bringing nature on the board?

And Simeon and Anne both wanted the board to be better informed.
