The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), an alliance that removed trade and investment barriers between Mexico, the United States, and Canada, is one of the first international trade agreements to include a section on environmental issues. Although some consider NAFTA's environmental regulations to be inadequate, they set an important precedent for building environmental safeguards into all such agreements. Environmentalists and special-interest groups lobbied hard for the inclusion of environmental provisions in NAFTA. Their greatest concerns were that Mexico might pressure the United States to weaken its environmental laws by declaring them to be barriers to trade, that jobs might be lost from the U.S. when industries relocated to take advantage of Mexico's less strict environmental laws, and that the development of border industries might damage the environment in an already heavily-polluted area. Specific issues included the provision of clean drinking water to border communities, treatment of wastewater and hazardous waste in these communities, phytosanitary trade protocols, dolphin-safe tuna harvesting methods, and recycling. | |
