N2  - The purpose of this work is to critically examine and reflect on the feasibility of granting legal rights to nature within the context of the European social and legal reality. We aim to address the following question: Should we grant legal rights to nature? 

This is not merely a legal debate; rather, it extends to our fundamental understanding of the relationship between humanity and the environment. Some argue that we are at a turning point where granting rights to nature is the only way to protect our planet and ensure an environment suitable for future generations. Others, however, warn of the risks of creating a "legal chaos," considering the economic implications that such a radical shift might entail.
