Environmental and Economic Policies Affecting United States Competitiveness

The testimony examines how trade agreements, specifically the GATT Uruguay Round and NAFTA, and the development of the domestic environmental technology industry intersect with United States economic and environmental interests and global competitiveness.

• The author identifies three primary areas of focus regarding U.S. competitiveness: the GATT Uruguay Round negotiations, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and its supplemental environmental agreement, and the growth of the U.S. environmental technology ('envirotech') industry.
