<p>Sweden’s environmental work is to set out from 16 national environmental quality objectives. It aims to work for a sustainable society and to solve our current environmental problems today and not pass them on to future generations. The purpose of this study was to evaluate <em>Uppföljning av handlingsprogram för miljömål </em>(a follow up-study of a programme for environmental quality objectives) and to propose new methods to work with the revision of <em>Handlingsprogram – så genomför vi de regionala miljömålen i Hallands län </em>(a programme to implement the regional environmental quality objectives in the County of Halland), a revision which will start in autumn 2010. We focused on the work done by the six municipalities of the County of Halland and by <em>Region Halland</em>, a joint venture organization of these municipalities.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Summaries from 2008 and 2010 both show a wide dissemination of the work done by the six municipalities. The priority of targets and actions are not made by the local officials. Instead, the decisions are made by politicians and are governed primarily by the municipalities and Region Halland's visions and by available funding and existing competence.The environmental target<em> A Sustainable Good Built Environment </em>is the environmental quality objective that contains the most measures <em>Not Yet Started</em>, suggesting that the objective is difficult to implement and that additional support from the County Government would be desirable.</p><p>To promote future work a good communication between the County Government and the operators is of paramount importance. Our opinion is that the municipalities and the County have not so far been cooperating in the best possible way. The County Government wants to be considered a resource and a supporting organisation, but it is not often seen that way by the municipalities.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
