Abstract

The global climate action movement has gained diverse support, leading to the rise of both activists and extremists. Over the past two decades, environmental extremists have grown into significant organizations, engaging in disruptive activities that cause property damage and financial losses, classified as eco-terrorism. Eco-terrorism aims to further environmental protection through destructive actions. However, glorifying these acts as heroic often leads to unintended consequences, including property destruction and environmental damage. This study utilizes three different research methods, namely the Normative Approach, Conceptual Approach, and Comparative Approach. The aim of this research is to gain insights into the consequences of eco-terrorism, a novel form of environmental crime, and examine the development of laws at both national and international levels to tackle this problem. In conclusion, this research found that several countries use general provision to handle eco-terrorism regarding violation against civil rights and emphasize the urgency to formulate the new form adaptive law to resolve this issue.
