| European Environment Agency The EEA is being set up to provide the European Community and its member states with objective, reliable and standardized information on the environment. It will assess the success of existing environmental policies and the data will be used to develop new policies for environmental protection measures. It will gather information covering the present, and foreseeable, state of the environment. The priority area are: air quality and emissions; water quality, pollutants and resources; soil quality, flora and fauna, and biotopes; land use and natural resources; waste management; noise pollution; chemicals; and protection of coastal areas. The Agency will also take into account the socio-economics dimension, cover transboundary and international matters, and avoid the duplication of the activities of other bodies | 欧洲环境局 (欧洲环境局正在建立，以提供欧洲共同体及其成员国客观、可靠和标准化的环境方面的信息。它评估现有的环境政策的成功与否，数据将被用于开发环保措施的新政策。它收集包括现在和可预见的环境状况的信息。主要的领域有：空气质量和排放；水质，污染物和资源；土壤质量；植物群和动物群以及群落生境；土壤利用和自然资源；废物管理；噪音污染；化学物质；海岸区域的保护。环保局考虑社会-环境方面因素，包括跨界和国际问题，以及防止与其他组织的活动发生重复。) |
