Abstract

The ability of anthropogenic chemicals to spread far and wide beyond their initial release points obligates an international approach to controlling them. However, the jurisdictional differences and spectrum of national priorities makes creation and implementation of international treaties sometimes fraught. A hardly insignificant issue is the burdensome disconnect between developed producers of such agents and developing regions that are historical disposal sites and emergent sources. In this Feature, Koloutsou-Vakakis and Chinta review the history and mechanisms of multilateral environmental agreements and posit on how they may evolve in the near future.
