Although environmental policy development and application in Japan, Korea, and the United States are compared in this study, the first chapter of the study is not countryspecific, as Chapter 1 provides an historical overview of world environmental awareness. The second chapter of the study is both general and countryspecific, as Chapter 2 considers, in the first part of the chapter, the general process and framework within which national environmental protection policy is established, while reviewing, in the second part of the chapter, the specifics of environmental protection policy in Japan, Korea, and the United States. Chapters 3 through 5 of the study are countryspecific analyses, in which comparisons are made between different aspects of environmental protection policies and their application in Japan, Korea, and the United States. Chapter 3 focuses on the methods of implementation and control in relation to environmental protection policy

istry, and John Cox, a chemical engineering consultant, "suggested that battle smoke might cause a drop in temperatures over a quarter of the world's surface" (Marshall, 1991, p. 372). The British Meteorological Office concluded, however, that the "effect of smoke on global temperatures is likely to be small" (Marshall, 1991, p. 372). Paul MacCracken, of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the United States said that "the worst plausible fires in the Gulf would produce a cloud of pollution about as severe as that found on a bad day at the Los Angeles airport" (Marshall, 1991, p. 372). Further, MacCracken postulated that no climatic effect would result from such fires (Marshall, 1991, p. 372). As it eventually turned out, the result was somewhere in between the most pessimistic and optimistic estimates. Based on studies of a 1986 oil spill in Panama (an area with water temperatures similar to those found in the Persian Gulf), it was estimated that the Kuwaiti oil spills would "kill corals, mangroves and intertidal seagrasses," along with "many organisms dependent upon these ecosystems" (Raloff and Monastersky, 1991, p. 71). It was also postulated that the oil spilled "would degrade fairly rapidly," but that highlev
