Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green Globe Yearbook aims to demonstrate to a world-wide readership where the international community stands with regard to solving specific environment and development problems, what the main obstacles are to effective international solutions, and what must be done to overcome them. The Yearbook is composed of two separate parts: evaluation and reference. The reference section contains systematically listed key data concerning the most important international agreements on environment and development, and inter-and non-governmental organizations with activities in this area. Most of them are presented in a two-page spread with illustrations. This section is updated in every volume, on the basis of information from the organizations in question and other sources. A subsection of country pofiles summarizes the performance, main commitments, and objectives in fourteen OECD countries in relation to international co-operation on environment and sustainable development. The evaluation section comprises articles written by leading, independent experts, which give the reader an up-to-date assessment of the realities behind the formal set-up described in the reference section. The authors present an informed evaluation of the results achieved through international collaboration within a particular agreement, organization, or process. It is pointed out not only to what extent the participating states have succeeded in dealing collectively with the problem at hand, but also how to overcome barriers to further progress. The 1997 volume has as its main focus on nature conservation comprising evaluations on: the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Sepecies of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES); IUCN - The World Conservation Union; and World Wide Fund For Nature (WWF). In addition it includes evaluations on: the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP); and the Global Envirnment Facility (GEF) with focus on International Waters. The combination of independent, high-quality analysis, and a useful reference section makes this Yearbook an indispensable guide for decision-makers in government, international organizations, NGOs, and industry as well as an essential source book for policy-makers, academic institutions, students, and libraries serving the concerned public. (Adapted from publisher's abstract).
