Green Crime - Inside the mind of the people destroying the planet Voordeel Wattedoen.be
How do the Earth's killers think? What makes their crimes so deadly? And how can we stop them from stealing our future? Psychologist Julia Shaw is a master at looking at the why human beings do the (evil) things they do. From oil spills to illegal deforestation, she exposes the disturbing underbelly of environmental crime whilst also shining a light on the heroes attempting to thwart its progress.
Using insider sources and her expertise as a criminal psychologist, she takes us deep into some of the worst environmental crimes of our time (think Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the Dieselgate emissions scandal, or the Shuidong wildlife crime syndicate). She reconstructs the minds of the perpetrators and, from the Amazon forest to South African gold mines, she follows the impact of green crimes right to our doorsteps, and meticulously profiles the work of the heroes bringing these criminals to justice.
