Description:... Presents a practical reference tool for environmental workers, government policy-makers, the media and the public. The handbook is designed to help us understand how trade can affect the environment, for better and for worse, and how environmental concern can work through the trading system to foster or frustrate development in both rich and poor countries. Broader understanding and awareness of these linkages will then be the foundation on which fair and environmentally sustainable policies and trade flows are built.
