The Environmental Effects of Free Trade
Papers Presented at the North American Symposium on Assessing the Linkages between Trade and Environment (October 2000)
Among the key issues shaping the free trade and economic globalization debate is the question of how trade liberalization affects environmental quality, either in terms of direct effects on our environment, or indirectly, for instance, the effects that such trade laws as those codified in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) have on hard-fought national environmental standards and regulations. Work in assessing the environmental effects of free trade continues to undergo significant improvements: assessment methodologies have improved; environmental data—although still filled with gaps and lack of comparability among trading partners—continue to become more robust; and tools able to draw links between trade-related economic changes and environmental changes continue to be developed.

Guidance document –Improving Environmental Performance and Compliance
10 Elements of Effective Environmental Management Systems
 In recent years the private sector has developed various types of environmental management systems (EMSs) for identifying and managing the impacts that commercial and industrial operations have on the environment. These systems primarily serve internal management purposes; however, when designed and implemented to realize their full potential, they offer opportunities for enhancing environmental protection in both regulated and unregulated areas. The governments of Canada, Mexico and the United States are interested in promoting the use of EMSs that not only assure compliance with environmental laws and regulations but also encourage their users to improve their environmental performance and to move "beyond compliance".(...)

Supporting Green Markets
Environmental Labeling, Certification and
Procurement Schemes in Canada, Mexico and the United States
 Among the highlights of this report: There are at least 25 important environmental labeling schemes in place in the United States. These schemes cover 156 product categories and approximately 310 actual products. While diversity of choice—especially in public policy instruments—is welcome, the current state of environmental labels may contribute to a bewildering array of choices for consumers, and the inability of one or two labels to carve a dominant market niche. (Given the trend in US markets toward the predominance of labels within different product categories, this fragmentation may contribute to the somewhat disappointing results of labels in the United States). This diversity of schemes also makes it difficult to determine an overall or aggregated estimate of total expenditures on green labels in the United States at this time.(...)

Environment and Trade Series, # 5—NAFTA's Institutions
The Environmental Potential and Performance of the NAFTA Free Trade Commission and Related Bodies
 This study of the environmental potential and performance of the institutions created by the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) represents a substantive contribution to Phase II of the Commission for Environmental Cooperation's NAFTA Effects Project. The project responds directly to Article 10(2)(l) of the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC), as well as to Article 10(6) which calls for cooperation between the Free Trade Commission (FTC) and the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) to achieve the environmental objectives of NAFTA and to assess its effects on the environment. The project will design a framework that will permit the ongoing monitoring of the environmental changes occurring throughout North America in the wake of NAFTA and the side agreements negotiated in conjunction with it.(...)
