		The United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) is an example of a standing scientific advisory committee mechanism, created by the UN General Assembly in 1955 (GA Resolutions 3226 (XXIX) and 31/10).
		The continued work of the Committee is in response to the widespread concern of countries on the hazards of radiation exposures that arise from natural sources and that are caused by man-made practices, events and accidents.
		This Scientific Authority has as its most important task to determine whether trade in any of the species included in the appendices to the Convention from the country concerned may or may not be detrimental to its survival.

	E/CN.17/1995/32 Indicators of Sustainable Development
		Therefore, a second discussion paper focused on environmental indicators, entitled "Environmental Indicators: A Systematic Approach to Measuring and Reporting on the Environment in the Context of Sustainable Development", was prepared for this Workshop by the ProJect on Indicators of Sustainable Development of the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE).
		The scientific community was represented by eight members of SCOPE and the NGO community by the New Economics Foundation and the IUCN Eastern African Regional Office.
		The scientific community, including the SCOPE project on ISDs, should focus their efforts on improved indicators of sustainability which include the integration of and linkages among economic, social, environmental and cultural dimensions of sustainability, and the approaches to aggregation of indicator into policy relevant indices.

		The modern dictator faces an almost insoluble problem: all dictators act to limit both competing sources of informa tion and the ability of citizens to communicate without the permission of the authorities; yet for a nation to compete in our interconnected world it is crucial that citizens are capable of using interactive computer-based telecommunications networks.
		Local problems can often best be understood and solved through research done elsewhere; we are increasingly aware of the global interconnectedness of environmental issues; and, perhaps most important, there is a moral imperative driving everyone into activities related to the protection of our planet.

	Tsui Design & Research Inc. \| In The Media
		Now is the time to make a world where beauty of the human environment and the study of nature go hand-in-hand down the inevitable path of creative freedom.
		He was a pioneer, 25 years ago, of the attitude that the preservation of nature and nature as a universal source of applicable design ideas, is the foundation of meaningful human made design.
		Tsui takes the building and the environment to the ultimate conclusion producing building of fantastic appearance that work like “living organisms” nurtured by their natural setting, their purpose and function and self-sustaining even in urban neighborhoods.

	ICSU Structure
		The Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment was created by the Xth Meeting of the Executive Committee of ICSU in Erevan in 1969.
		SCOPE’s scientific programme is designed to cover environmental issues - either global or shared by several nations - in urgent need of interdisciplinary syntheses through synthesis, assessment, and evaluation of information available on natural and human-made environmental changes and the effects of these changes on people.
		SCOPE relies on a worldwide network of 40 national science academies and research councils, and 22 international scientific unions, committees and societies to guide and develop its scientific programme.

		There are many rationales behind space exploration; among the most common are ones focusing on scientific research or the future survival of humanity.
		This endeavour has been to some degree a dream and goal of humanity for the past several centuries, but it was not until the development of large liquid-fueled rocket engines during the early 20th century that it really began to be seriously developed.
		The German V2 was the first rocket to travel into space, overcoming the problems of thrust and material failure.

		Future well-designed research will elucidate the magnitude of the problem, identify target substances of concern, and advance our knowledge of human and wildlife health.
		In addition to overall conclusions regarding the present state of knowledge, a series of more than 40 specific research recommendations was developed to assist future efforts.

	IUGG COMPTES RENDUS part 27
		SCOPE was established by ICSU in 1969 in response to environmental issues emerging at that time, recognising the interdisciplinary nature of many of the research questions being posed.
		Some of SCOPE's syntheses are published as monographs by John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Chichester, England (more than 50 titles have appeared so far) but many others are in the form of special reports, survey papers in the scientific literature, and/or semi-popular paperbacks.
		In 1995, SCOPE is expected to receive financial support for its scientific projects from UNEP, EC, NATO, several governments (France, the USA, Spain, Mexico and Belgium) and various private sources (the Mellon Foundation, EPRI, the Wallenberg Foundation, the MacArthur Foundation and the Leverhulme Trust).
