policies on sustainable development in the world, and Cees Moons has been
closely involved in developing these policies. Embedded in Dutch policy are a
number of innovative incentives including progressive relationships with industry.

Environment (VROM) for 23 years, holding a number of posts, including Senior
Policy-Maker for the External Safety Issues Department. In his most recent
