Summarizes United States activities in conference and non-conference 

 work and gives conclusions of the congressional group and the conference 

 itself. In summary the report notes: "The above criticisms tend to show if 

 anything, that, even though the Conference may not have generated a great 

 many substantive proposals by which nations will be bound, it was realistic 

 in its narrow scope and modest objectives. In the end there were no debili- 

 tating political stalemates though one seriously threatened. By avoiding more 

 difficult and dangerous issues the Conference was able to end on a positive 

 note rather than in turmoil. It did provide a focus for attention and promote 

 discussion of worldwide pollution measures. As it is increasingly being 

 demonstrated, the parts of the earth are complexly interdependent. World- 

 wide measures are needed. The Stockholm Conference hopefully will be the 

 start of that tj^pe of action and the basis and examples for all future conferences."

Prepared for the June 1972 Stockholm Conference on the Human Environ- 

 ment. According to Sen. Warren G. Magnuson: "A great wealth of scientific 

 knowledge on the environment abounds in the organizations identified in this 

 study. Perhaps more importantly, the large number of organizations repre- 

 sented here, together with the environmental specializations shown for them 

 in the matrix presentation, demonstrates the need for the establishnient of 

 an information center from which policy makers at both the national and 

 international levels can formulate efifective programs to keep this planet 

 habitable."
