The purpose of FPLs is to facilitate the rapid tailoring of military crisis response; they are implemented based upon the assessed threat or crisis. This takes into account the fact that the available planning time often precludes use of the full CF OPP [Canadian Forces operational planning process]. 1, record 1, English, - force%20protection%20level

Les NPF ont pour but de faciliter l’adaptation rapide de la réaction aux crises militaires. Ils sont mis en œuvre d’après la menace ou la crise qui a été évaluée. On tient ainsi compte du fait que la planification dont on dispose empêche souvent l’utilisation de tout le PPO [processus de planification opérationnelle] des FC [Forces canadiennes]. 1, record 1, French, - niveau%20de%20protection%20des%20forces

Between 1972 and 1977 several studies confirmed the hypothesis that air pollutants could travel several thousands of kilometres before deposition and damage occurred. This also implied that cooperation at the international level was necessary to solve problems such as acidification. In response to these acute problems, a High-level Meeting within the Framework of the ECE on the Protection of the Environment was held at ministerial level in November 1979 in Geneva. It resulted in the signature of the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution by 34 Governments and the European Community(EC). The Convention was the first international legally binding instrument to deal with problems of air pollution on a broad regional basis. Besides laying down the general principles of international cooperation for air pollution abatement, the Convention sets up an institutional framework bringing together research and policy. The Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution entered into force in 1983. It has been extended by eight specific protocols. 2, record 3, English, - Convention%20on%20Long%2Drange%20Transboundary%20Air%20Pollution
