This book presents the new EU approach to environmental management and its attempt to place it in the perspective of sustainable development. China and other large and fast growing economies are putting increasing pressures on globalenvironment, but they are also looking at the European experience with great interest. To present critically this experience can help those countries avoidthe mistakes made by developed countries in dealing with the relation betweeneconomic growth and environmental protection, and to improve the institutionsand tools for better environmental governance. The variety of issues covered and the wide approach used in this book make it a useful tool for readers who want to place themselves in this perspective, although starting from differentbackgrounds and levels of knowledge on environmental and sustainability sciences.
