Abstract

A binary conceptualisation of justice is achieved in the prosecution of environmental offending with minimal to no offender and victim voice, interaction, and input, leading to the questioning of the sufficiency of that binary conceptualisation. Drawing on various approaches to harm under green criminology (environmental justice, ecological justice, climate justice, species justice, and earth jurisprudence/deep ecology) a third conceptualisation of justice is devised—justice as meaningful involvement. As well as exploring justice as meaningful involvement, this chapter explores how it can be achieved through restorative justice conferencing. Vital for its acceptance amongst the legal profession, government and judiciary is the fact that conferencing does not displace justice as procedure and justice as outcome, thereby leading to the achievement of justice as a tripartite conceptualisation.
