Bus/Financial - Environment & Ecology / Umweltverschmutzung
English term or phrase: The number of applications
ich bin mir nicht sicher, dass ich das Wort "application" in diesem Kontext richtig verstehe:
"Dislosure strategies ... form thebasis for what some have called the third wave in pollution control policy (after legal regulation and market-based instruments). While these strategies have become common in natural resource settings (...), they are less familiar in a pollution control context. Yet the number of +++applications+++ in that context is now growing in both OECD and developing contries.
Ist es hier eine Anfrage/Antrag oder Anwendung/Gebrauch?

Danke.
