Abstract

The wake of the new millennium has been rather tumultuous with the world splitting with wars, conflicts and prejudices but none have a greater and far-reaching consequence than the acts of violence against nature. Consumerism, materialism and the industrial boom have led to a global crisis that has adversely affected the natural environment. Green crimes cause environmental harm including actions not specified by the law but having environmental and cultural ramifications. To establish a safe and sustainable globe for future generations, eco-conscious narratives provide a window for creating awareness and acknowledging the perpetual perils. The paper tries to explore how eco-conscious narratives initiate social, political, moral, legal, and cultural perceptions to confront the offences against nature. The paper also seeks to find how contemporary cultural phenomena serve as a tool to combat green offences, provide alternate methods to conserve ecological collapse and create green empathy, and sustainability.
