About this site

Day-to-day management of the site http://ec.europa.eu/environment/index_en.htm is the responsibility of the Commission’s DG Environment.

The language policy of this website is to use

as many EU languages as translation resources allow for information of broad public interest, and
the most widely-used common language for specialised websites. In the case of environment, this means English.

Pages containing information for a broader public will be published in a range of EU languages, depending on the target audiences and on any specific geographic interest the information may have.

This website adheres to the general language guidelines set out for EUROPA.

The European Commission always publishes its official documents in all the EU languages (see the EUR-Lex database on http://eur-lex.europa.eu). The Europa site also offers you much more information on the Commission's work, including its environment policy, in a variety of languages (see http://europa.eu/pol/env/index_en.htm).
