23 Their personality to sue in behalf of the succeeding generations can only be based on the concept of intergenerational responsibility Mark Twain: Confidence and Ignorance
24 While the right to a balanced and healthful ecology is to be found under the Declaration of Principles and State Policies and not under the Bill of Rights, it is no less important than any of the civil and political rights of human beings.
25 Such a right concerns nothing less than the right to selfpreservation and self-perpetuation, a right that may even be said to predate all governments and constitutions.
26 If they are now specially mentioned in the fundamental law of the land, it is because unless it is written in the constitution itself,
27 the day would not be too far when all else would be lost not only for this generation but also for succeeding generations. generations which stand to inherit nothing but a parched earth incapable of sustaining life.
28 Not able to tell a story, but able to assert the right to tell a story in your behalf, In the process, sent a message to humanity Incidentally, DENR Banned all logging in virgin forests and 1992 NIPAS Law (RA 7586) Story Apply the principle of seven generations
