Abstract
This article presents a balance sheet of the actions carried out by the Mexican-U.S. binational environmental agencies. The Border Environment Cooperation Commission (
BECC) and the North American Development Bank (NADB), their projects and actions, are analyzed 16 years after NAFTA came into effect. The article emphasizes the challenges these agencies will face in coming years, given the increasing need to put into practice the development-environment binomial along the shared border.
