The Operatives is an eight part series that follows famed eco-warrior Pete Bethune and his team of hand-picked military elite. With the latest technical equipment and life-threatening missions, the team travels through Africa and Central America hoping to capture, prosecute and expose the environmental criminals who are destroying our world. There is no absence of challenges during the campaign. Boats are sabotaged, equipment is smashed and the team is crippled by an injury toll which leaves only a few left standing. It's 'James Bond' meets 'Captain Planet' as the world's most hard-core team of conservationists start their inaugural campaign.
