Overall Comment on X.8 : This high-quality program area covering the 

 Natural Heritage is of direct interest to the U.S. scientific and 

 environmental community and concerns the elaboration and coordination 

 of a global network of biosphere reserves. It is a program receiving 

 support from the World Heritage Fund and UNEP at a level about two 

 times the regular UNESCO budget. The same caveats prevail for over- 

 seeing these activities as noted under program X.6.
