Historical portrait depicting Nicomachos, Aristotle's son

The Ethica Nicomachea is the Greek philosopher Aristotle's major work on ethics. Both his father and son were named Nicomachos, and tradition holds that his son played a key role in recording and preserving this foundational text.

We draw on Aristotle's legacy not only for its name, but for what it represents: a belief that justice is not just a concept, but a practice—one that requires courage and action.

In that spirit, Nicomachos supports those using the law to confront the defining ethical challenge of our time: the climate crisis.
