It is possible that the lengthy debate on the social clause is affecting implementation of the NAALC and in some way obstructing the full realization of its potential, while on the other hand the notion of international environmental cooperation is much more widespread, and indeed making rapid progress.
On peut envisager que le long dÃ©bat sur la clause sociale influence la mise en Å"uvre de l’ANACT et empÃªche d’une certaine maniÃ¨re la pleine exploitation de son potentiel, tandis que la notion de coopÃ©ration internationale en matiÃ¨re environnementale est beaucoup plus rÃ©pandue et surtout, en pleine expansion.
