La présidence allemande de la Conférence alpine avait pour but de faire progresser la mise en oeuvre de la Convention alpine et de ses protocoles moyennant un programme de dix points. La mise en oeuvre des grandes orientations du développement durable dans l’espace alpin devra reposer sur un système d’indicateurs à l’échelle alpine. Un tel instrument permettra de mieux étudier les succès et le... read more

The principles laid out in the CRCF proposal of the European Commission and the proposed amendments by Council and European Parliament set minimum sustainability criteria. They are vague and require specification into executable criteria for certification. This... read more
Determination and Evaluation of Ambient Air Quality
Measurement of air pollution emissions and ambient air quality is an essential instrument for air quality evaluation and control. In such measurements, pollutants are registered both at their place of origin (emissions) and at the place where they may affect people and/or the environment (immissions1). Both types of measurement complement each other and are essential for the implementation of ... read more
Economic measures for the reduction of the environmental impact of air transport: noise-related landing charges
Due to the predicted growth rates for air traffic and the intended capacity extensions at many international airports, economic instruments have become more important. This study examines how LTO-charges, which are differentiated according to aircraft-noise emissions, can stimulate incentives for airlines to use less-noisier aircraft. read more
Voluntary offsetting: credits and allowances
To date, the supply of units for the voluntary carbon market has been almost exclusively in the form of credits generated by climate protection projects elsewhere. This report analyses the merits and challenges of another possible source of supply for GHG compensation: allowances from emissions trading systems (ETSs). Yet some ETSs have market stability instruments (MSIs), such as the Market S... read more
