http://www.ihdp.uni-bonn.de/html/projects/i-idgec.html

Extractions: Institutional Dimensions of Global Environmental Change (IDGEC) Institutions are systems of rules, decision-making processes and programs that give rise to social practices, assign roles to the participants and guide their initial interactions. IDGEC's research agenda centers on the examination of the role of social institutions in causing, exacerbating and solving large-scale environmental problems. The analysis looks particularly closely at concepts of institutional fit, interplay, and issues of scale. The core activities of IDGEC circle around three themes: ocean governance, forest use and carbon management; the circumpolar North and Southeast Asia are regional foci.

The programme Welcome to the Global Environmental Change Programme, the largest ever social science research initiative in the UK on any issue. The main feature of this web site is a set of three documents. These summarise, in an accessible form, the most important insights to have emerged from our research. The documents, which can be accessed by clicking on the images below, are organised around the following themes: You can read the preface to the three documents here . There are also PDF versions of the three documents and you can also view a short video documentary on each of the three themes. This site is also an archive of more detailed information about the Programme, with full search facilities. This includes: one page summaries of each of the 150 empirical research projects and Fellowships details of over 1000 publications that have been produced as a result of the research Programme responses to Government consultations and Parliamentary inquiries and a host of other material.

http://www.ciesin.org/TG/OZ/oz-home.html

Extractions: CIESIN Thematic Guides Welcome to the CIESIN thematic guide on ozone depletion issues. The purpose of this guide is to help you find selected key documents that pertain to the issue of ozone depletion: causes, human and environmental effects, and policy responses. The 1985 report of the discovery of an "ozone hole" over Antarctica focused attention on the idea that humans can have a significant impact on the global environment. This discovery, along with evidence that ozone is being lost at nearly all latitudes outside the tropics, has prompted much research into the causes of ozone depletion and the biological effects of increased ultraviolet radiation exposure. The potential effects on humans and the environment have led to international resolutions designed to gradually phase out production of ozone-depleting substances. As a result, the scientific and industrial communities have collaborated to find safe and economical replacements for chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), the manmade chemicals implicated in ozone loss. This guide contains an Overview that provides general background on key concepts and issues related to ozone depletion. In addition, four subsections explore selected topics in greater detail:

Extractions: CIESIN Thematic Guides * Provisional Release * Welcome to the CIESIN Thematic Guide on Human Health. The purpose of this guide is to help you find selected key documents and data sets vital to understanding the relationship between human health and global environmental change. Health as defined in the World Health Organization's constitution is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." The state of health of an individual or population depends upon complex i nteractions of the physical, biological, political, and social domains. Over the past century, human activities and behavior have played a major role in global environmental change, with increases in atmospheric greenhouse gases, depletion of the stratosp heric ozone layer, loss of biodiversity, pollution of water resources, and degradation of soils. In turn, these and other global environmental changes are beginning to affect the health and welfare of human populations. According to the United Nations Env ironment Programme (1992) in Saving Our Planet , "All constituents of the environment of our planet ultimately exert an influence on human health and well-being." Only recently have scientists begun to explore these influences, and most of the liter ature currently available focuses on the effects of climate change.
Center For Health And The Global Environment, Harvard Medical School
The Center's mission is to understand the human health consequences of global environmental change, and to promote a wider understanding of these consequences among physicians, scientists, policymakers, the media, and the general public.
