| Tiivistelmä: | This article argues that a Global Environmental Organization (GEO) is an idea whose time will surely come. The article traces the evolution of the debate over a GEO, and analyses the problems and opportunities it poses for the world trading system. It considers the genesis of proposals for a GEO, and provides a short historical account. Next, it offers one view of what a GEO might entail. The following two sections offer a brief summary of some of the main arguments for and against such a body. Section VI discusses issues of implementation, and the relationship between a GEO and existing institutions with environmental or trade responsibilities, such as UNEP and the WTO. It also considers whether a GEO should be built up incrementally, or whether a "grand stroke" would be more effective in establishing it. |
