Sustainable Justice Australia advocates for a Sustainable Justice Think Tank. [1] Since there are several areas of law to consider when thinking about Sustainable Justice, a sustainable justice think-tank seems called for, not dissimilar to the Australian Law Reform Commission but specialising solely in sustainability, with representatives from the fields of criminal law and law enforcement, commercial law, evidence, environmental law, private law, public law, legal practice and legal education, who would continuously ponder the question: What sustainability obstacles should [area of law] prioritise in the foreseeable future? What legal and policy actions should be implemented and what is the rationale behind them? Such a think tank should consist of at least nine members (but preferably double that), one (ideally two) for each field mentioned above, and a coordinator, all receiving ongoing funding to do their tasks of ongoing research into sustainable justice opportunities and make recommendations.
