'''Environmental Terrorism'''
'''Environmental Terrorism'''
"Environmental destruction or the threat thereof can be labeled `[[terrorism]]' when: (1) the act or threat breaches national and/or international laws governing the disruption of the environment during peacetime or wartime; and (2) the act or threat exhibits the fundamental characteristics of terrorism (i.e. the act or threat of violence has specific objectives, and the violence is aimed at a symbolic target). An act of environmental destruction can be termed `environmental terrorism' only when the two latter criteria are met, and when the environment is used by the perpetrator as an authentic symbol that instills fear in the larger population over the ecological consequences of the act." <ref>http://jpr.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/35/4/483</ref>
