Agreement Lists:
Lists of agreements with links to text, membership, performance data, secretariat, and summary statistics.
Over 900 multilaterals, 1500 bilaterals, and 250 "other". Grouped by Date, Subject, and "Lineage" of
legally-related agreements (e.g., those related to the Montreal Protocol). "Other" includes environmental
agreements between governments and international organizations or non-state actors, rather than 2 or more
governments.

Performance Data
Datasets of over 150 environmental indicators (from secretariats or scholars) linked to the IEAs trying to improve them, for use in
assessing the influence/effectiveness of IEAs, e.g.,
whale harvest (1910-2005);
acid rain emissions (1980-2005); and
emissions of ozone depleting substances (1986-2005).
Use the Performance Data link or the "Data" links in each Agreement list.
