 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of the Congress that the United States should: (1) place the highest priority on its successful participation in the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) (and that the President should make every effort to attend); (2) actively support the signing of international agreements that effectively reduce the threats of climate change and the loss of biological diversity and that establish a strong framework for cooperation between developing and developed countries on a wide range of environmental and developmental issues; (3) seek the development of a stronger legal framework to protect the global environment; (4) support the effort to address the legitimate needs of developing countries for increased financial resources, new and appropriate technologies, and reduced debt burden to facilitate sustainable growth; (5) support initiatives to help developing countries become more energy efficient, with increased priority on renewable energy resources and more efficient transportation systems; and (6) support global goals of slowing deforestation of primary native forests.
