Hello to all, and welcome to Week 04 Forum. This week inaugurates the treatment of some of the many examples of specific environmental crimes that exist, and we start by centering on analyzing ground pollution. The question for this week is the following:

A) Your own thread:

Mention common characteristic(s) in the perpetrators of the crimes that are analyzed in all the readings. Provide rationale for your argument and support it with pertinent and accurate statements from the readings.

Guidelines: 1) Use 80-150 words. 2) Obvious common characteristics such as “They are all criminals” or “They have all polluted” will not get your answer a good grade. You need to grasp the contents of all readings and provide insightful analysis.

B) Your answer to a peer:

If available, choose a peer that provided characteristic(s) totally or partially different than you did.Provide comments about what your peer chose. Then say to the person what common characteristic(s) you provided in your thread. Finally, conclude if what you said and what your colleague said are exactly the same, similar, complementary, contradictory or none of them.

Guideline: use 80-120 words.
