 | | The International Environmental Technology Centre was established by UNEP in 1992 to promote the application of environmentally sound technologies to address urban environmental problems, such as sewage, air pollution, solid waste and noise, and the management of freshwater resources to developing and transition countries. |
 | | It reviewed progress made towards sustainable development in the 10 years since the Earth Summit of 1992, identified the challenges that still remain, and provided an opportunity to forge new commitments and partnerships to address these challenges. |
 | | One of the world's largest and most effective independent organizations dedicated to the conservation of nature, this WWF site provides information on initiatives to protect animals and plants threatened with extinction, as well as the many forms of pollution that are harming the soil, atmosphere, freshwater and oceans, which sustain life. |
