A Polity for the Earth.
The PPI is a virtual institute dedicated to connecting advanced academic research in ecological politics, ethics and law to active struggles for political change, improved governance, and ecological survival.

Writing Planet Politics
Planet Politics: A Manifesto from the End of IR
Planet politics must emerge as an alternative thought and process: a politics to nurture worlds for all humans and species co-living in the biosphere. We must embrace a multi-species, multi-disciplinary action plan. And we must do it now.
Coal Elimination Treaty
Imagine one idea that could eliminate 40 per cent of the world’s greenhouse pollution and save millions of lives this century.
That is the Coal Elimination Treaty – the CET.
Environmental Defenders
The murder and repression of environmental activists - often indigenous people fighting to protect their lands and precious ecologies - is a double crime: against human rights and the rights of nature. The PPI is building a resource base on environmental defenders and, through its Crimes Against Biodiversity research program, developing a new international criminal code that prohibits such violations.
Moving Beyond Coal
Coal is a highly toxic substance and the source of 40% of global greenhouse pollution. These pages showcase the reporting and research - on the climatic emergency and carbon budget, coal’s devastating human costs, and just transitions - that supports our Coal Elimination Treaty proposal.
