Green Globe Yearbook of International Co-operation on Environment and Development: 1995 by Volume editor Helge Ole Bergesen
This yearbook's main objective is to demonstrate to a world-wide readership how far the international community has come in solving specific environmental and developmental problems, what the main obstacles are to effective international solutions, and what needs to be done to overcome such barriers. It focuses on the achievements and shortcomings of international co-operation, enabling the reader to distinguish between rhetoric and reality in environmental politics at world level. The particular focus of this year's edition is climatic change, with account being taken of the discussions which took place in Geneva in August 1994. The second half of the book contains key data concerning the most important international agreements on the environment and development, and intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations that are active in this area.
