International cooperation with both organizations and states is an important component of Israel's environmental agenda. Over the years, Israel has reinforced its efforts and strengthened its commitment to active participation in global and regional programs and agreements on behalf of the environment. Its contribution, within the context of different international organizations, spans all areas of the environment - marine protection, combating desertification, water resource protection and development, biodiversity conservation and development of environmental technologies, to name but a handful. At the same time, Israel has ratified nearly all of the major environmental conventions and ensures that its national legislation conforms to international obligations.
