The seventh in the International Environmental Paper Series is divided into three sections. The first proposes global agreements which can be reached in the areas of nitrogen emissions, "common heritage" resources, and the development of renewable energy technologies.
The second section proposes two separate environmental management plans that share in common some important principles: the emphasis of citizen and NGO participation, and the importance of regional economic development.
The final section of this volume includes four papers that address some promising opportunities and problematic issues in making large-scale environmental agreements work at the global and regional levels.
