An introductory essay frames the major issues in GEG and outlines the pitfalls of talking past one another when discussing the most critical of issues facing the planet. It challenges those who are concerned with the management of our planet and its inhabitants to understand and accept a vocabulary common to the often-opposing objectives sDictionary & introduction to global environmental governanceEnvironmental responsibilityInternational cooperationDictionariesEnvironmental policyInternational cooperationDictionariesGlobalizationEnvironmental aspectsDictionariesEnvironmental managementInternational cooperationDictionariesSustainable developmentGovernment policyDictionariesEnvironmental responsibilityInternational cooperationEnvironmental policyInternational cooperationGlobalizationEnvironmental aspectsEnvironmental managementInternational cooperationSustainable developmentGovernment policy333.703363.70526Saunier Richard EMeganck Richard AlbertMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911145880903321UNINA
