This video addresses the environmental problems still plaguing Europe's Black Sea area. Special coverage is given to the ten-day conference held in 1997 on this subject. More than three hundred scholars, government officials, scientists, and others attended, including the highly concerned representatives of the countries with shores along the Black Sea. One segment also looks at the pollution still pouring into the Black Sea from such tributaries as the Danube and Dniester Rivers. ~ Elizabeth Smith, Rovi
