Karl-Heinz NARJES, Vice-precident of the Commission of the European Communitiei and Monsieur Alain CARIGNON, Ministre Délégué, chargé de l'Environnement This is Report No 7 in the Air Pollution Report Series of the Environmental Research Programme of the Commission of the European Communities, Directorate-General for Science, Research and Development. [...] GINJAAR, the former Minister of Health and Environmental Protection of the Netherlands, emphasised the need for setting up a concerted research programme including the effects of air pollution on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. [...] The Council of Ministers of the European Community in 1984 adopted a revision of the 3rd Community Programne on Environment comprising contract research and concerted action in the field of the effects of air pollution in eco systems. [...] The Commission of the European Community is very concerned to increase the effectiveness of research projects carried out within the national programmes, and those undertaken at the Community level. [...] The Commission tends to develop an integrated scientific approach, including not only the physico-chemical behaviour, the transport and the deposition of airborne pollutants but also the effects of these pollutants, in particular on living organisms and ecosystems.
