Border Trade and Environment Project
From 2000 to 2003, and in conjunction with partner organizations in Mexico, the U.S. and Canada, TCPS produced a series of reports examining how various issues -
from hazardous waste to water management to forestry - are linked to NAFTA
and U.S./Mexico economic integration. These reports found that in some cases NAFTA had exacerbated existing environmental and social problems. In addition, in 2003, we held a series of forums to highlight these concerns. Our aim is to increase public awareness
of these issues, and of the performance of binational and trinational environmental
institutions set up in part to "mitigate" the impacts of free trade.We are currently assessing what role TCPS will play in these issues in 2004 and beyond.
