This publication, which was released in the first quarter
of 2000, builds on the information provided in two previous
publications: the UNEP/UNICEF/UNITAR Global Opportunities
for Reducing the Use of Leaded Gasoline and the UNEP/UNICEF
publication Childhood Lead Poisoning.
It includes successful programmes to phase-out lead completely
in some countries as well as coordinated action of the lead
industry. This information can help accelerate efforts by
governments - particularly in Asian, Latin American and African
countries - and industry to remove lead from gasoline.
