Green Police
In New Jersey, USA, a team of cops and scientists is
'busting' polluters. For the first time a film crew has been given total access to their operations. 40 Minutes follows the trail - the surveillance. the 'sting', the raid.

Jersey, they believe only tough action will deter dumpers. Is there a lesson for us in Britain? Producer JOHN EDGINTON Editor CAROLINE PICK
