Bibliogr.
"The relaunching of negotiations for a new directive on environmental crime is necessary to ensure a more effective fight against a crime that is widespread, but difficult to detect and poorly prosecuted. European legislators will have to overcome the failings of the old text, also within the framework of the Green Deal objectives."
