Résumé :
The global environmental issues include climate change, ozone depletion, marine dumping, deforestation, and biodiversity. However the objective of my thesis is not to provide detailed scientific treatment of the nature of the major environmental challenges facing the world , but rather to explore the interaction between trade and environment. Actually, as Annie Taylor explains in her book, Global trade and Global Social Issues, there is a debate between trade and environment which has emerged in 1980's. Since 1980's, global environmental issues are rising against international political and economic agendas. Awareness of environmental issues has moved from isolated incidence with a national or local focus to an understanding of a global crisis that links environmental degradation to current development patterns, and especially trade. Thus, Chatterjee and Finger, two writers argue that global environment 'were actually a far more serious challenge and critique of industrial development than anything else that came before.
