Environment

Democracy 2.0 is deeply rooted in justice and sustainability, so there are hardwired protections for the environment in the system.

Environmental Safeguards

1. Constitutional Right to a Healthy Planet – Environmental protection isn’t optional; it’s legally mandated. No government can roll back climate laws.
2. Polluter Accountability Tax – Corporations causing environmental damage must pay into restoration funds rather than passing the cost to taxpayers.
3. Mandatory Clean Energy Transition – A hard deadline for phasing out fossil fuels, with a public fund for developing renewables.
4. Local Climate Councils – Every city has a citizen-led sustainability board that oversees environmental progress outside of government control.
5. Nature Reparations Fund – Restoring ecosystems that have been devastated by industrialization, with automatic funding allocation protected from political interference.
