This volume examines women and wildlife trafficking via a collection of narratives, case studies and theoretical syntheses from diverse voices and disciplines. Wildlife trafficking has been documented in over 120 countries around the world. While species extinction and animal abuse are major problems, wildlife trafficking is also associated with corruption, national insecurity, spread of zoonotic disease, undercutting sustainable development investments and erosion of cultural resources, among others. The role of women in wildlife trafficking has remained woefully under-addressed, with scientists and policymakers failing to consider the important causes and consequences of the gendered dimensions of wildlife trafficking. Although the roles of women in wildlife trafficking are mostly unknown, they are not unknowable. This volume helps fill a lacuna by examining the roles and experiences of women with case studies drawn from across the world, including Mexico, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, South Africa and Norway. Women can be wildlife trafficking preventors, perpetrators, and pawns; their roles in facilitating wildlife trafficking are considered from both a supply and a demand viewpoint. The first half of the book assesses the range of science, offering four different perspectives on how women and wildlife trafficking can be studied or evaluated. The second half of the book profiles diverse case studies from around the world, offering context-specific insight about on-the-ground activities associated with women and wildlife trafficking.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of wildlife crime, environmental law, human geography, conservation, gender studies and green criminology. It will also be of interest to NGOs and policymakers working to improve efficacy of efforts targeting wildlife crime, the illegal wildlife trade and conservation more broadly.

Klimaet er på alles læber i disse år, hvorfor det er utrolig vigtigt, at vi træffer de rigtige valg, når det gælder forsyningssikkerhed, landbrug og miljø for de kommende generationer.I bogen kommer forfatteren ind på mange af de dilemmaer som ind - greb og tiltag kan medføre.Ligesom han forklarer hvorfor IPCC´s principper for måling utilsigtet anvendes som styreværktøj med fatale følger for klimaet i de enkelte lande.Hvordan bevæger kulstof sig rundt i vores verden og hvordan gavner nogle tiltag, mens andre tiltage er direkte skadelige for klimaet?Bogen kommer også ind på den naturlige konflikter, der kan være mellem hensynet til klimaopretningen på den ene side, og diverse mil - jøaspekter på den anden side.Forfatteren Anker J. Jacobsen er stifter af virksomheden Ammongas og mangeårig direktør samme sted.Derudover har han en master i proceskemi fra DTU og 40 års erfaring med klimateknologi og sidst men ikke mindst et brændende ønske om, at man betragter klimaet ud fra et fagligt og objektivt saglig grundlag, så vi får valgt de rigtige løsninger, der kan bringe os på rette spor.

Kendskab til offentlighedsloven er ikke tilstrækkeligt, hvis man arbejder med aktindsigt inden for de mange sagsområder, hvor der foreligger miljøoplysninger. Her anvendes miljøoplysningsloven, der i flere sammenhænge giver en bedre adgang til aktindsigt end offentlighedsloven. Kendskab til miljøoplysningsloven er derfor afgørende for at foretage en lovlig behandling af en række anmodninger om aktindsigt. Med Miljøoplysningsloven med kommentarer foreligger der nu for første gang en samlet kommentar til loven. Kommentaren er et nyttigt redskab for alle, der i praksis kommer i berøring med aktindsigtssager, herunder offentlige myndigheder, advokater og journalister.

What role could or should the law play in dealing with the climate emergency? In this innovative volume, leading scholars explore fundamental debates at the frontier of climate change law scholarship. They address the key areas of scholarly disagreement about what climate change law is, the legal rules it consists of, and how these rules could be implemented in the real world. The first eleven topics are debated by teams of scholars expressing diametrically opposite points of view on each topic, in traditional debating style; the last seven chapters are presented as an individual author's own reflection on a topic that cannot readily be reduced to a binary debate. Each chapter is written in an accessible and thought-provoking way, emphasizing clear lines of argumentation. The debating-style format is designed to stimulate students to think critically and logically about the law and to fire up debate in and out of class.
