Reviews
White's overall message is one of critique, connectivity, inclusion and collective enterprise. For him, a climate change criminology requires us to get to know our planet - what is going on where and why, and what we can do about it. It is an ambitious transdisciplinary challenge, but a sensible one it is hard to argue against it. There is no more pressing problem facing the continuation of the human species and Rob White has ensured that green criminology asserts a central place in the future of humanity and that of all living things. Reece Walters, Queensland University of Technology

Reece Walters, Queensland University of Technology With this book, Rob White is breaking new ground. The book is an important addition to the climate change literature. White establishes here the urgency of knowing who is doing what to prevent, stop, encourage and/or expand climate change, as well as the injustices produced by the phenomenon. Ragnhild Sollund, University of Oslo
