数字化不仅在重塑我们的社会，也正在对环境产生深远的影响：一方面，数字化可以改善环境状况，例如它可以优化生产过程来降低对环境的影响。另一方面，数字化也会产生“反弹效应”，对环境造成不利影响，例如人们对互联网产品的日渐增加的需求，导致了更多的资源和能源消耗。通过这份讨论文件，德国联邦环境署（UBA）展示了数字化为环境政策创造的机遇和挑战，旨在为塑造可持续的数字化作出贡献。weiterlesen
The Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), also known as the Geneva Convention on Air Pollution, was adopted in Geneva on 13 November 1979. Fifty-one parties have signed the Convention, including all EU Member States, the EU Commission, many Eastern European and Central Asian states, as well as the…weiterlesen
Each issue of the Agency's "What Matters" magazine is devoted to relevant topics in the field of environmental protection. It is published every six months. In its 2-2019 issue, UBA takes a look at air traffic: What effects does flying have on the environment? How do noise and pollutant emissions affect human health? And what solutions has UBA developed to make flying more environm…weiterlesen
Due to various international agreements, Germany is obliged to report emissions of air pollutants annually. Emission inventories are calculated using the fuel inputs known from the statistics and the associated fuel-specific emission factors. For large combustion plants comprehensive data on air pollutants are available on the basis of numerous measurements. These data were evaluat…weiterlesen
Aufgrund verschiedener internationaler Abkommen ist Deutschland verpflichtet, Emissionen für Luftschadstoffe jährlich zu berichten. Die Berechnung der Emissionsinventare erfolgt mit Hilfe der aus der Statistik bekannten Brennstoffeinsätze und den dazugehörigen brennstoffspezifischen Emissionsfaktoren. Für Großfeuerungsanlagen liegen aufgrund zahlreicher Messungen umfangreiche Daten zu Luftschadsto…weiterlesen
Chemicals with a specific combination of intrinsic substance properties pose a hazard to the sources of our drinking water, including substances that are very persistent (vP) in the environment and very mobile (vM) in the aquatic environment as well as substances that are persistent (P), mobile (M), and toxic (T). This publication presents the result of the scientific and technical development of…weiterlesen
Herein a review of substances detected in drinking water and groundwater found that 43 percent of them are registered under EU REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. In addition, a PMT/vPvM assessment was applied to all REACH registered substances (as of May 2017). Persistent, Mobile and Toxic (PMT) and very Persistent, very Mobile (vPvM) substances pose an intrinsic hazard to the sou…weiterlesen
This paper examines the connection between Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement on the one hand and carbon leakage on the other. Firstly, this is done by considering different types of emission targets in the NDCs. With an NDC in a carbon leakage receiving country, shifted emissions in many cases require increased mitigation efforts, so carbon leakage comes at a cos…weiterlesen
„Für Mensch und Umwelt“ ist der Leitspruch des UBA und bringt auf den Punkt, wofür wir da sind. In diesem Video geben wir Einblick in unsere Arbeit.
