The ideas in this issue
examine many of these facets of APEC. Our first Developing Idea charts how
sustainable development is being woven into the APEC process. Developing Idea #2
discusses the 'official' yet 'informal` process utilized by APEC as a way of
meeting the needs of their disparate membership. In Developing Idea #3 we
investigate attempts to integrate sustainable development into the trade and
investment process, which is viewed by many as being flawed and unsuccessful to
date. The fourth Developing Idea gives a fresh perspective on the geography of
the region and the importance of the marine environment which links the member
states. And, the last Developing Idea looks at APEC's sustainable cities
initiative which serves as a concrete example of the on-going work and
challenges of APEC. Lastly, Trend Watch investigates the growing trend of
open-pen salmon farming, some of the problems being encountered and a proposed
solution.
