Abstract

This research article delves into the multifaceted realm of “Green Crime,” exploring its various dimensions, implications, and regulatory challenges. As environmental degradation accelerates globally, the study investigates criminal activities that harm the environment, examining both conventional and emerging forms of green crime. By employing a comprehensive framework, the research scrutinizes illicit practices such as illegal waste disposal, wildlife trafficking, and environmental pollution, shedding light on their socio-economic impacts and consequences for biodiversity.

The analysis extends to the legal and regulatory frameworks governing green crime, evaluating their effectiveness in deterring and prosecuting offenders. Drawing upon case studies from diverse geographical regions, the research identifies patterns and disparities in green crime prevalence, considering the socio-cultural and economic factors that contribute to its perpetuation.

Furthermore, the article emphasizes the need for international collaboration and strengthened enforcement mechanisms to address the transnational nature of green crime. It advocates for a holistic approach that integrates environmental policies, law enforcement strategies, and public awareness campaigns to mitigate the escalating threats posed by green crime. Ultimately, this research contributes to a nuanced understanding of green crime, offering insights that can inform policy development, legal reforms, and collective efforts to safeguard our planet for future generations.
