It Isn\u27t Easy Being Green: Environmental Policy Implications for Foreign Policy, International Law, and Sovereignty

This paper examines how foreign policy involving trade, defense, diplomacy, and international law is being greened at home and abroad as environmental groups pressure government agencies to give environmental concerns greater weight. It argues that these changes represent a fundamental shift in US foreign policy and international relations. It identifies problems that arise from these revisions and explains how free market environmentalism offers a sound alternative that will lead to better environmental protection through freer trade, increased wealth, and decentralization
