Default Green Business Concerns?

I am more and more concern about the following issue. Many green projects all over the world are growing each day and local governments offer many benefits to people starting those jobs, like lower taxes and other benefits. But these sectors are perfect for money laundering, which criminals know very well. Do you think there is any possibility that green sector will see increase in criminal activity in years to come?

Oh of course. People will try to do criminal things in any way that they can, but just because people will try to do these things doesn't mean the government should abandon the idea of green company perks. If these perks were not around, those criminals would find some other way to get their dirty business through the system.

Yes, it is likely that 'green money laundering' will increase in activity. I think I came across an article which mentioned 'eco-Mafia'...It isn't surprising that there are individuals who will take advantage of the attention given to green causes. Instead of saving the planet, they are more into amassing fortune.

I heard that in Europe most powerful mafia is actually "environmental" mafia. For example, they are buying off people' land for cheap and using it as an illegal toxic waste dump sites.
