Environment and Trade: A Handbook - Second Edition

This handbook describes in detail 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. It is aimed mainly at those with some knowledge about trade, environment or development, but who are not expert on the intersection of the three. It aims to serve as a practical reference tool for policy-makers and practitioners, and be equally useful to the media and civil society.
