N2  - "Ken Conca critiques the UN's failure to use its mandates on human rights and peace as tools in its environmental work. He traces the history of the UN's traditional approaches, maps its increasingly apparent limits, and suggests much-needed reforms. His conclusion is compelling: peacebuilding, conflict sensitivity, rights-based frameworks, and accountability mechanisms can be used to enhance the UN's environmental effectiveness and legitimacy."--Page 4 of cover
