The EC funded HAIR project (http //www.rivm.nl/stoffen-risico/NL/hair.htm) is devoted to integrating the different methods for the assessment of pesticides into a combined index. The intention is to go beyond the environmental and ecotoxicological properties of pesticides and to address the human toxicity aspects as well. The ultimate target is to produce an index useful to regulators changed with evaluating the EU policy on pesticides and to reduce the overall impact of the pesticides. This project also considers other chemicals besides pesticides. As in many other examples, the lessons learned from pesticides... 

Acid deposition is an on-going, long-term environmental problem with a greater environmental impact than previously projected. Since many ecosystems are now more sensitive to the input of additional acids, their recovery from the adverse affects of acid rain will most likely be delayed. In Acid in the Environment, vjq provide the perspectives of various authors with respect to the lessons learned and future prospects associated with the issue of acid deposition. We use an interdisciplinary approach that combines a discussion of important ecological issues associated with acid deposition with an analysis of domestic and international policies to control the emission of pollutants that cause acid rain. In this context. Acid in the Environ-...
