Canadian Institute for Environmental Law and Policy - Established in 1970, CIELAP is an independent, charitable, not-for-profit, environmental law and policy research and education organization.
Ecological Tax Reform Studies - We are examining the impacts of carbon taxes with revenue recycling in New York State and Minnesota. Ecological tax reform is a strategy to help ensure that environmental goals can be met efficiently and equitably, while maintaining healthy economic activity.
GEO 2000 - A coordinated network of Collaborating Centres is the core of the GEO process. These centres have played an increasingly important role in preparing GEO reports. They are now responsible for almost all the regional inputs, thus combining top-down integrated assessment with bottom-up environmental reporting. A number of Associated Centres also participate, providing specialized expertise. Four working groups ?on modelling, scenarios, policy and data ?provide advice and support to the GEO process, helping coordinate the work of the Collaborating Centres to make their outputs as comparable as possible. Other United Nations agencies contribute to the GEO Process through the United Nations System-wide Earthwatch, coordinated by UNEP. In particular, they provide substantive data and information on the many environmentally-related issues that fall under their individual mandates; they also help review drafts.
Commission on Global Governance - The Commission on Global Governance is a major contributor to the crucial debate on the future of the United Nations and the challenges of the post Cold War era is inviting interested organizations to view its new presence on the World Wide Web.
Institute for Global Communications (IGC) - The Institute for Global Communications (IGC) is a nonprofit organization that provides alternative sources of information as well as online access and comprehensive Internet services for progressive individuals and organizations.
