>>The UNEP Information Clearing-house on POPs was established upon the proposal for an "open file" by the second Inter-sessional Group (ISG2) of the Intergovernmental Forum on Chemical Safety (IFCS) in 1995.
>> This section of the POPs Homepage aims at facilitating information exchange, on both POPs themselves as well as on alternatives and techniques that may represent approaches for replacing or reducing/eliminating releases of POPs. It should be noted that not only chemical substitutes are covered but also biological, environmental and other alternative approaches, as well as experiences in using these.
>> A number of these information products are developed in collaboration with, or based on work made by other organizations, including those with specialization in certain fields like WHO and FAO.
