Abstract: This research article explores the concept of the Rights of Nature by reviewing survey results from undergraduate students at the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) on their perception of the Rights of Nature. The Rights of Nature are defined as nature having the same right to exist as humans (Harden-Davis et al., 2020). This study found how receptive undergraduate students are to the term Rights of Nature by analyzing their answers to a list of questions, both multiple choice and short answers. The research findings concluded that students at UNCW agree with the theoretical conceptualization of the Rights of Nature. However, they think it is politically infeasible as a solution to environmental problems.
