We defend the natural world from environmental crime and abuse

STILL a critical threat to our future In our landmark 2008 report Environmental Crime – A Threat to Our Future, we were the first to analyse the combined impact of multiple environmental crime types and the coordinated global response they demanded. Some 18 years later, that call for urgent action has gone substantially unheeded. In our new report Crimes that Affect the Environment – Still a critical threat to our future, we conclude that in the interim environmental crime and abuse has actually grown more sophisticated, more lucrative and even more damaging to the planet and human society.
