24 Message from IEM 1. Large scale environmental degradation in Asia-Pacific Region caused by climate change and human activities can be detected by MODIS Network 2. Environmental degradation in terms of area, frequency and degree in Asia-Pacific Region are found to be much severer than predicted. 3. Most environmental degradations are related with water issues, such as desertification, floods, drought, dust storm, forest fire, water shortage, water pollution, etc. 4. Catchment-based environmental management is essential for sustainable development. IEM is contributing to the Task Force of Integrated River Basin Management in China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development (CCICED). 5. Establishment of regional information system communicating with decision makers in Asia-Pacific Region is proposed.
