Global Environment Outlook 2000, or GEO-2000, is a comprehensive and authoritative review and analysis of environmental conditions around the world. It is the flagship publication of the world's leading environmental organization, UNEP, and is based on information provided by more than 30 regional and international collaborating centres.
A region-by-region analysis is given of the state of the world's environment - highlighting key global concerns and making recommendations for policy action - in Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, West Asia and the Polar Areas.
Written in clear, non-technical language and supported throughout by informative colour graphics and tables, GEO-2000 will be the benchmark reference and guide to the state of the global environment. It is essential reading for all those involved in environmental policy making, implementation and assessment, and for researchers and students of regional and global environmental issues.Published in association with the United Nations Environment Program.
