Welcome To EPE (European Partners For The Environment)
Network of European organizations, companies, trade unions and related groups working on sustainable development. Site has extensive resources on links on sustainability at all scales. Special topics include green purchasing, sustainable tourism, and Europespecific environmental sourcebooks.
http://www.epe.be/

Extractions: June 14th, 2004 in Brussels This meeting is an initiative of European Partners for the Environment celebrating its 10th anniversary this year and the Regional Environment Center. It takes place within the framework of Renaissance Europe, a joint initiative of the EPE-REC-Progressio Foundation, to catalyse the creation of framework conditions for a participatory, inclusive, enterprising, culturally creative and sustainable Europe that can enable the people of Europe and the world to fulfil their dreams now and for generations to come. The Draft European Constitution expected to be approved by the Inter Governmental Conference by June 2004 states that "the Union's aim is to promote peace, its values and the well-being of it peoples". (Draft Art I-3, §1). The European "reunification" and a new approach to accelerate the transition towards the Well-Being of Society are, in our views, the two pillars of the Second Renaissance of Europe. The "Well-Being of Society" think-tank meeting is designed to provide a forum where agents of change from government, civil society and companies can meet to explore how they can (i) be mutually supportive in improving the well-being of people in Europe and around the world and (ii) engineer new partnerships to accelerate the transition towards a global well-being.

As a result, choices are made on the basis of generalized observations and best guesses, or worse yet, rhetoric or emotion." The Environmental Sustainability Index (ESI) is based on a project developed by the Environment Task Force of the of the Global Leaders for Tomorrow of the World Economic Forum, in collaboration with the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy and the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University. 2002 marks the third year that the ESI has been released.
