Conservation of Environment Essay

Conservation criminology is an interdisciplinary study of the exploitation of the environment we humans have, while thinking about the consequences our environmental exploitation has on society. The first example of conservation crimes is releasing chemicals or toxins in the environment like estrogen based-pharmaceuticals, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants in aquatic ecosystems. It might not be illegal in some cases, but it's a conservation crime because it affects the aquatic life which can have potential negative effects on us and the environment in the future.

“Hunters have historically been leading advocates in conservation, even though strategies for conservation advocacy in the past looked quite a bit different from today's green movements,” stated Nels Paulson, an author for Conservation and Society (Paulson). In similar words, there are many positive effects of hunting not only towards the people, but the environment too.

Ancient civilizations, such as Rome, Babylon, and Greece, dealt with the problem of air pollution. “Excessive deforestation continued in England in the 1500s, forcing the English to switch to coal.” The United States dealt with…

rainforests in Central America and Brazil, leading to a devastating effect on the ecological environment (IUNC 2006). This example is a small glimpse into the larger picture of the anthropocentric control over the environment and the cleared land demonstrates the effect overconsumption can have on an environment as it would have led to the destruction of many wildlife. The IUNC (2006) states that the top 20% of the wealthiest countries consume a large amount of natural resources. This figure is…
