Yesterday, InSightCrime Co-director @jerrymcdermott @jerrymcdermott spoke about the importance of cracking down on #EnvironmentalCrime in the #Amazon at #COP11 #UNTOC. Below is a short recap of what was discussed 🧵👇:

“We must step up our due diligence [on] the sourcing of wood, gold, and other products of #EnvironmentalCrime.” Illegally logged timber, for example, is often used to make products sold legally in international markets.
