Summary:	"Daan van Uhm examines how organized crime groups diversify into the illegal trade in natural resources by looking at the convergence between environmental crime and other serious crimes. The book offers personal stories from informants directly involved in organized crime networks, providing insights into the black markets in gold, wildlife, and timber. It focuses on three environmental crime hotspots: the Darién Gap, a remote swath of jungle on the Colombia-Panama border in Latin America; the Golden Triangle, an opium epicenter in Southeast Asia; and the eastern edge of the Congo basin, a conflict area in Central Africa"--
