"Spain has granted personhood status to Europe's largest salt-water lagoon in a
first for the continent.
Mar Menor lagoon has suffered massive die-offs of marine life due to
degradation caused by coastal development and local farming.
The new law came into force on Wednesday after a citizen-led push to provide
better protection for the threatened ecosystem.
More than 600,000 citizens backed the initiative, which was then voted in by
the Senate in Madrid."
