How has the world changed during the last 20 years after the publication of "Our Common Future" by the Brundtland Commission, and after the United Nations issued the Rio Declaration on the Environment and Development in 1992? Many people have seen considerable improvements in their income, health and level of educaiton. But poverty has not been eradicated, global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions is still unavoidable, and the rate of biodiversity loss is increasing. |
