International cooperation and agreements play a vital role in addressing global environmental issues
over the long term. These agreements bring together nations, organizations, and stakeholders to
collectively tackle issues that transcend borders and impact the planet as a whole. Here are the key
roles they play. Some environmental issues, such as air and water pollution, transcended national
boundaries, leading to efforts to address these issues through international cooperation. For example,
international agreements and conventions were established to regulate activities like nuclear testing
and maritime pollution.
