The second section focuses on environmental diplomacy and regime-building in Pacific Asia, examining issues such as acid rain, nuclear waste, deforestation, and conflict over regional seas. Contributors from Asia, Europe, and North America bring an international perspective to questions of environmental cooperation."International Environmental Cooperation" provides policymakers, citizens, scholars and students with essential information for understanding and addressing some of the world's most significant environmental problems.
