Our Training and Organizational Assistance Program Leadership and Enhanced Assistance Program Technology Resources Program Workplace Solicitation Program ... Environmental Loan Fund , and State Environmental Leadership Program help these vital environmental groups become better managed, funded and equipped. Grassroots organizations are all too often outnumbered, outspent, and outmaneuvered by their opposition, whose top priorities are not usually in the best interests of our environment. The Environmental Support Center empowers these environmental groups by helping to improve their management, planning, funding and communications capabilities. In its first nine years, the Center:

http://www.weeksbay.org/newsletter/Fall_2000/Pg5_2.htm

Extractions: The Pelican Post - Fall 2000 Concern Grows for Regional Environmental Issues Environmental concerns for our area are abundant and residents seem to have a growing appreciation and understanding that the air and water know no county or state lines. The recent announcement that the highest ozone levels recorded in our area this summer were at the Fairhope ozone monitor "brought the issue home" to many Eastern Shore residents, who savor Baldwin county's beauty and had not been aware of a potential ozone non-attainment status for the entire Mobile metropolitan area. Unfortunately, the greater Mobile area has also ranked high in the Environmental Defense Fund's Toxic Release Inventory Scorecard. In balancing the needs of our growing population with environmental concerns, difficult decisions are faced daily by municipal and county governments, as well as state and federal legislators and regulatory agencies. What can you do? Get involved and let your individual voice be heard. Remember that conservation efforts begin with simple, individual actions, from following tips like those listed on our " Ways You Can Protect Estuaries " page, to

http://www.state.gov/g/oes/c1871.htm

Extractions: Under Secretary for Global Affairs Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs Regional Hub Program Around the world, countries are facing new and growing environmental challenges, many of which require regional cooperation to solve. Bringing nations together in a region to work on a common environmental problem a common threat can advance U.S. interests in ways which go far beyond the scope of the environmental issue itself. The Department's commitment to a regional strategy complements our bilateral and multilateral diplomatic environmental efforts. To address transboundary environmental issues, the Department established regional environmental Hubs, located in twelve embassies around the world. The Hubs are predicated on the idea that transboundary environmental problems can best be addressed through regional cooperation. The regional environmental officer's role will complement the traditional bilateral Environment Science and Technology officers stationed in embassies around the world. Rather than dealing with a single country on environmental issues, regional environmental officers will look at transboundary issues from a region-wide perspective. Hub officers will engage with several countries of the region on a particular issue, with the aim of promoting regional environmental cooperation, sharing of environmental data, and adoption of environmentally sound policies that will benefit all countries in the region. The Hubs, located in: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Amman, Jordan; Ankara, Turkey; Bangkok, Thailand*; Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire; Brasilia, Brazil; Budapest, Hungary*; Copenhagen, Denmark; Gaborone, Botswana*; Kathmandu, Nepal; San Jose, Costa Rica; and Tashkent, Uzbekistan; work closely with other USG agencies to support their efforts by raising key issues at the diplomatic level, and with non-governmental organizations on environmental activities within their region.

Environment Strategy Environment Concern for the environment is viewed by many as a rich-country luxury. It is not. Natural and man-made environmental resources - fresh water, clean air, forests, grasslands, marine resources, and agro-ecosystems - provide sustenance and a foundation for social and economic development. Today, the World Bank is one of the key promoters and financiers of environmental upgrading in the developing world. In 2001, the World Bank Board of Directors endorsed an Environment Strategy to guide the Bank's actions in the environment area, particularly over the next five years. The Strategy emphasizes three objectives: It recognizes that sustainable development, which balances economic development, social cohesion, and environmental protection, is fundamental to the World Bank's core objective of lasting poverty alleviation.
PSRP Overview

http://psrp.ucdavis.edu/overview.html

Extractions: Overview of the Public Service Research Program The Public Service Research Program of UC Davis addresses issues at the interface of research and scholarly outreach. From its inception, in 1976, PSRP has facilitated and supported scholarly research and outreach on public policy issues of interest to the State of California. PSRP acts as a catalyst for new partnerships, providing opportunities for UC Davis faculty and students to work collaboratively and across disciplines on critical public issues with members of the campus and communities of interest, especially in northern California. The "Fully Engaged University": PSRP's work is an important element of the UC Davis academic mission. To do scholarly outreach is to engage with public entities on issues of concern to the university and society at large. In Chancellor Larry Vanderhoef's words this mission is "create real partnerships with our communities, partnerships in which we define problems together, share goals and agendas, develop common definitions of success, and pool or leverage university, public and private funds." Mission: The distinctive mission of PSRP is to foster partnerships in applied research, education, and outreach on significant issues of public concern. Our goal is to engage the research and scholarly outreach expertise and resources of UC Davis in addressing important issues of society. PSRP provides a bridge between university research knowledge and public understanding, bringing research findings to bear on public policy and decision making,, enhancing the academic mission of the university.

http://www.cornellcaspian.com/sida/sida-reg-6.html

Extractions: REGIONAL OVERVIEW The economic collapse in the South Caucasus has also contributed greatly to environmental problems, which were already significant in Soviet times. In fact, the first public demonstration in Armenia and Georgia in 1987 were related to environmental issues. The main problems are pollution, deforestation, the Caspian sea, and the Medzamor Nuclear Plant in Armenia. The water level of the Caspian sea has been rising since the 1980s and has already left hundreds of agricultural lands in the south of Azerbaijan under water. Over fishing and poaching of sturgeon by a powerful and armed caviar mafia, and the over-sale of black caviar, have also created such a problem that in 2001 the UN imposed restrictions on the five Caspian littoral states on the sale of caviar. Exploration and production of oil and gas have also led to massive ecological problems in the sea. In 1999-2000, Azerbaijani environmentalists reported the death of hundreds of sea lions in the Caspian. Another problem is the Medzamor nuclear power station in Armenia and the potential ecological threat it poses should an earthquake take place. The activity of the

Extractions: The synopsis below summarizes the main points gleaned from discussions with key leaders throughout the state. The summary outlines the topic-based issues affecting children's environmental health in California, describes key actions to address these concerns, identifies regional similarities and differences, and describes the next steps necessary for this project. ISSUES AFFECTING CHILDREN'S ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH Children are in a dynamic state of growth and as a result, a wide variety of environmental health hazards can impact their health and well being. For this reason, leaders identified a myriad of broad and overlapping concerns. Due to the multidisciplinary nature of this work, Network staff frequently heard different and opposing perspectives. This diverse input provided a more holistic view of children's environmental health in California. The concerns most commonly noted include: Environmental Exposures Health Outcomes Specific Sites (Home, School, Suburban Sprawl)
