Those submissions are set out in documents UNEP POPS INC.7 INF 4 and 5, respectively.

The Co Chair drew attention to the objectives and possible outcomes of the meeting, as set out in the scenario note for the meeting (UNEP POPS EGBATBEP.1 INF 1), and the tentative schedule for the week (UNEP POPS EGBATBEP.1 INF 2).

(e) Subregions that contain large quantities of POPs

Option 6 Expand the existing GEF POPs focal area.

The Expert Group adopted the agenda set out below, on the basis of the provisional agenda which had been circulated as document UNEP POPS EGBATBEP.1 1

The Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) The Stockholm Convention protects human health and the environment by restricting the production, use, and trade of persistent organic pollutants (POPs).

Option 6 Expand the existing GEF POPs focal area Governments could decide to expand the existing GEF POPs focal area to serve a cluster of chemicals conventions and processes.

These substances are consequently known as persistent organic pollutants or POPs.

And I guess you inject it into maybe an ostrich egg, or something like that, and then you wait, and, lo and behold, out pops a little baby dinosaur.

A complete list of participants, including observers from Governments, observers from intergovernmental and non governmental organizations and others, is set out in document UNEP POPS EGBATBEP.1 INF 7.

These submissions are contained in document UNEP POPS COP.1 INF 14.

As a result, when evaluating a POPs project proposal, the GEF may be able to identify ways to deal with non POPs substances (and thus achieve Rotterdam related benefits) at a relatively small incremental cost.

And it got big enough to the point where there was a float last year at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, and Rick Astley pops out, and rickrolls millions of people on television.

Table 2.2.8 Projected cost of operating the clearing house mechanism for information on POPs

Since then, POPs and land degradation (desertification) have been added as GEF focal areas.

Parties are obliged to develop strategies to identify, manage, and dispose of POPs wastes.

Following the Secretariat's draft MOU, the GEF issued its draft operational program on POPs.

One set that pops up time and time again describes the traits of the victims.

Those elements are outlined included in paragraph 3 of document UNEP POPS INC.7 10.

The effects of POPs exposure include birth defects, cancers, and dysfunctional immune and reproductive systems.

All of these are extracted directly from my bank accounts, and everything pops up right away.

The first edition of the inventory is contained in document UNEP POPS COP.1 INF 24.

The full results of the questionnaire are available in document UNEP POPS COP.1 INF 27.

In addition, UNIDO is actively engaged in supporting the implementation of the Stockholm Convention for POPs.

Option 2 Urge the GEF to include more Rotterdam related activities under the POPs focal area.

The financial mechanism for the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) is a funding mechanism.

They accumulate in the tissue of living organisms, which absorb POPs through food, water, and air.

At its seventh session, in its decision INC 7 8, the Committee noted the terms of reference for the study, which were set out in the annex to document UNEP POPS INC.7 14 as follows

This was carried out with due consideration of document UNEP POPS INC.7 INF 21 regarding the guidance and information needed to assist the Conference of Parties in evaluating continued need for DDT for disease vector control.

They are summarized together with other relevant information available in document UNEP POPS COP.1 INF 5.

The roster as of 1 August 2006 is contained in document UNEP POPS POPRC.2 INF 11.

The submissions have been reproduced in the annex to background document UNEP POPS COP.1 INF 19.

Such co finance must still be for a project that is, at its core, a POPs project.

It was then as contained in document UNEP POPS INC.6 INF , revised to reflect intersessional comments from Governments and, as so revised, presented in document UNEP POPS INC.7 INF for further consideration by the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee at its seventh session.

The Parties to the Convention will each elect to apply a number of policy measures that will contribute to the reduction or elimination of POPs releases, and these measures will vary from country to country reflecting the differing country situations and POPs problems.

To the extent that the capacity building needs of countries in their efforts to reduce eliminate POPs will often address more general chemicals management issues, the GEF, in supporting the POPs Convention, will strengthen the other chemicals convention processes related to chemical safety.

Some WHO collaborating centres are already carrying out work which is relevant for implementation of the Stockholm Convention, e.g., in relation to the quality of pesticides for public health use and the analysis of POPs in biological samples.
