This report emphasizes integration across regions, between the state of the environment and policy, between the past and future, between thematic areas, and among sectors, for example, environmental, economic, social, and cultural. It also tries to analyse policy (social responses) in relation to specific environmental issues, showing positive and negative policy impacts on the environment and how the environment can drive policy, both retrospectively and proactively. It covers the impacts of public and private sector policies, and regional and global policies, including multilateral environmental agreements. Read the full report here.
