Talk:International environmental agreement

Proposed merge with List of international environmental agreements
An important topic that would be strengthened through merging the two articles. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 11:13, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't support merging the substantive article into the list resource article. I really like these lists (your work, I believe), and I think they should stand as reference resources. However, I would suggest an alternative, which is to merge Multilateral environmental agreement with Environmental protocol, possibly renaming the combined article "Environmental treaty" or "International environmental agreement" (whatever terminology you prefer). Please note that a lot of the heavy lifting may already have been done in the the Treaty article. Ado2102 (talk) 19:13, 28 June 2015 (UTC)


 * A belated thanks, for your comment. I was thinking more the other way around: merging the list article, which while useful, doesn't stand on its own very well -- into this one, which while having a broad frame, lacks substance. Kind regards, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 00:44, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Some Proposed Changes
Hello, I am employed by Boston University's Fineman & Pappas Law Libraries. After reviewing this Wikipedia page, I believe that information from one of our faculty's scholarship might provide a valuable addition to this page. I would appreciate it if this requested edit could be reviewed.

'''Add a citation and the following revision to define multilateral environmental agreements for the following sentence: ''' "If the agreement is made among three or more nations, it is called a multilateral environmental agreement (MEA)."

Also incorporate the following sentence to expand upon the concept of multilateral environmental agreements: There have been increasing use of environmental provisions in bilateral environmental agreements and also in international investment agreements, like bilateral environmental agreement. "An agreement between two nations is known as a bilateral environmental agreement."

 * Partially done While the statement is uncited in the introduction, statements in the introduction don't have to have citations if it is referenced later in the article. I added the other sentence.  Zoozaz1   talk   21:54, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
