Environmental Crime Law

Environmental Crime Law pertains to legal regulations that prohibit activities harming the environment, such as illegal dumping, pollution, wildlife trafficking, and deforestation. Under criminal law, individuals or corporations found guilty of these crimes can face severe penalties, including fines and imprisonment. The aim is to protect natural resources, public health, and ecosystems from exploitation and damage. Enforcements may involve local, national, or international laws, and violations can lead to both criminal charges and civil lawsuits, reflecting the serious impact of such actions on society and the environment.
