EU-funded project investigates environmental policy integration

Whilst environmental issues have steadily risen on citizens' lists of most critical concerns facing society, have public authorities done enough to address these concerns? An EU-supported project recently got underway to try and answer this particular question. The Coordinated Action project funded under FP6, Environmental Policy Integration and multi-level Governance, or EPIGOV, recently held its first conference in Brussels to debate environmental policy integration and attempt to identify which sectors are best placed to address issues of climate change and pollution.
