New York City's Eco-crime fighters

May 29, 2009

New York City is getting tough on eco crime. Every day officers dressed in green uniforms patrol the city to make sure no one is breaking environmental laws. Historically focused on hunting and fishing violations in Upstate New York, the force has been around since 1880. Now they've moved to the city, where they patrol the streets armed with guns and handcuffs. Polluter's beware- if you harm the environment you just might get caught.
