註釋

Overview of the environment of the Atlantic Provinces at a particular time. The report identifies problem areas, describes important conditions and trends, and outlines the direction in which the region is headed environmentally. The central theme of the report is the relationship between human activities and environmental quality, human health, and the economy. The concept of sustainability is explored, both in terms of ecosystem sustainability, and the long-term sustainability of the current use of the environment and its resources. The report describes the environmental resource base, including ecozones, demographics, air, water, land, and wildlife; the stresses, including acid rain, dioxins and furans, wildlife and fish habitat, and environmental impact assessment; and a diagnosis for sustained use of air, water, land, special places and species, and energy. A glossary is included.
