Criminology’s Contribution To The Climate Crisis

There is no doubt that the world is facing a significant and complex climate crisis.

Current debates within Criminology adopt a Green perspective, and this introduces students to the main theoretical approaches within Green Criminology, with particular emphasis on international perspectives and solutions to the climate crisis.

In addition, Dr Lowri Cunnington Wynn introduces concepts of ‘environmental harm,’ vs ‘environmental law.’

Green Criminology is central to students’ understanding of a changing world, and this session explores the complex dependence between humans, nature, the changing climate and its relationship to harm and crime.
