The Global Environment Outlook 4: Environment for Development

This Global Environment Outlook (GEO) report provides comprehensive information and analysis on the links between environment, development and human welfare.

This fourth edition of the GEO report focuses on the most immediate environmental challenges facing the world today in the areas of the atmosphere, land, water and biodiversity.

It assesses the impacts of these environmental challenges on people, and the importance of promoting timely action by integrating prevention, mitigation and adaptation efforts into the core of environmental decision making and governance processes.

The report is available for download by chapter or as a single document, and is also available in several different languages, including Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish.
