Climate Change Criminology

This book presents pioneering work that seamlessly integrates criminological theory with the critical issue of climate change. The book provides a novel window into issues around climate justice, a growing area that requires much attention. By coining the term 'climate change criminology', White situates justice issues around green criminology at a place where a deeper discussion can evolve. In doing so, he proposes a response to Harding's (1983) call for criminologists to consider how criminology can act on the growing challenges of climate change. The environmental damage caused by global warming and ecocide, and the victims who suffer the most from environmental changes are discussed eloquently in a way that urges the reader to consider responses to climate change for environmental justice.
