Enter a world where people are murdered, ecosystems are destroyed, and corruption is rampant. Where organised crime groups infiltrate desperate communities, and corporate gangsters think they are above the law.

And, closely following their every move, are teams of secret agents, vigilante groups, and scientists who are revolutionising the fight for our planet. Using insider sources and her expertise as a criminal psychologist, Julia Shaw peers inside the minds of environmental criminals.

She explores six world-changing crimes. The true story behind famous cases, like the Deepwater horizon oil spill and the Dieselgate emissions scandal, and cases that everyone should know, like the case of the Shuidong Syndicate and the chase of the Thunder.

As she tells each harrowing case, she reveals how earth’s killers think, why their crimes are so deadly, and how we can stop them from stealing our future.
