The studies demonstrate that identifying current non-tariff measures (NTMs) facing exports of the ESCAP (Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific) region is a difficult task. The essays reveal the importance of the three major markets, the European Union, Japan, and the United States, to the countries of the ESCAP region, and thus the necessity of restraining the use of NTMs in these markets. The publication clarifies how extensively NTMs are applied, and emphasizes the importance of improving the existing collections of data on NTMs for both developed and developing countries for future trade negotiations. TITLE: North America's Environment: A Thirty-year State of the Environment and Policy Retrospective LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 02.III.D.58 ISBN: 9280722344 PAGES: 230 PRICE: $25.00 DESCRIPTION: Focusing on UNEP's North American region, comprised of Canada and the United States, this report provides an integrated analysis of the state of resource assets and 30-year trends in nine major themes: atmosphere, biodiversity, coastal and marine areas, disasters, freshwater, forests, human health and the environment, land and urban areas. Rather than offering a comprehensive description and analysis of the state of North America's environment in all its aspects, the report zeroes in on two priority issues for each of the nine themes. Following the approach taken in GEO-3, the specific issues identified under each theme build on those highlighted in GEO-2000 and include critical issues, emerging trends, hot spots, and once critical issues that illustrate successful policy responses. Presented in an integrated narrative, this information shows how environmental issues have been addressed in Canada and the United States over the 30-year period in an iterative cycle of pressures, impacts, and responses. Boxes provide definitions, highlight subregional issues and serve to illustrate the text through examples.
