Impacts of Pollution from Outside the European Union on Europe's Environmental Targets

Abstract:

EASAC published on 17 June 2004 a statement on atmospheric pollution in the EU. The statement highlights the growth in concentration of atmospheric ozone, which is moving towards levels that could have serious health and environmental implications. The statement also draws attention to the fact that many pollutants found in the EU have their origin in other parts of the northern hemisphere, and that effective control of atmospheric pollution must involve cooperation among the major countries in the northern hemisphere.
