520 "Since the emergence of the modern state system,
governments have sought to regulate their affairs through
international treaties and other types of
intergovernmental agreements. For example, when it became
known that emissions of certain chemicals destroyed the
stratospheric ozone layer, governments agreed on a global
treaty to ban such emissions. When Titanic sank in 1912,
governments negotiated the International Convention for
the Safety of Life at Sea. More than 1,300 international
treaties have been concluded just to address environmental
concerns, from the Agreement on the Conservation of
Populations of European Bats to the United Nations
Framework Convention on Climate Change. There is even an
international Agreement Governing the Activities of States
on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies and an Agreement on
the Rescue of Astronauts"--|cProvided by publisher
