This episode of The Green Interview features Jan van de Venis, an extraordinary Dutch lawyer who lives at the intersection of human rights and sustainable development. He’s deeply concerned about the human right to drinkable water but industrial developments ofen use vast quantities of water and leave it totally contaminated. Sustainable development therefore has to respect the human right to drinkable water and so in addition to running his own law firm Just Law in Utrecht Jan van de Venis is also Director of the Legal Desk at the Swiss water conservation group WaterLex.
