Just
as in the United States, Europe and the rest of the world, concerns
about environmental, economic and social sustainability are running
high on the Pacific Rim, the huge collection of nations located in and
around the Pacific Ocean.
Certainly there are grave concerns about the ability of many Pacific
Rim nations to feed their growing populations. Global warming is also
an important issue because many Pacific Rim countries are susceptible
to flooding that could be caused by rising world temperatures.
