Clearing the Air
European advances in tackling acid rain and
atmospheric pollution
Ashgate, 2002. 202 p.
The adoption of the 1999 Gothenburg Protocol within the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) and the 2001 EU National Emission Ceilings (NEC) directive has made for much stronger and more effective European air pollution policies. This book offers the first in-depth analysis available of this key development, which provides important examples for other regions of the world and other issue areas.
