A graph for three air pollutants shows the extent to which the WHO recommendations from 2021 will be exceeded on average in urban areas between 2000 and 2024. The development of the various pollutants varies. Between 2000 and 2024, values for NO2 are between 172 and 28 percent, for ozone between 44 and 28 percent and for PM2.5 between 255 and 61 percent

Graph: After a strong increase since 2000, employment has been declining since 2012 due to the sharp job losses in solar energy. There was a slight increase from 2015 to 2016. Most jobs were created in the wind energy and biomass sectors. Between 2016 and 2019, there were sharp declines. By 2023, there were significant increases again, especially in solar energy and heat pumps.

A graph shows good and sufficient bathing water quality levels for coastal and inland waters (1992 to 2024). Bathing water quality increased significantly, especially in the 1990s. The target value of 100 % bathing waters with at least sufficient quality was almost reached in 2015 and has been constantly at a high level since then.

A graph shows the change in the concentration of total nitrogen in all major rivers that discharge into the North and Baltic Sea in Germany and indicates the target value of 2.8 or 2.6 mg/L total nitrogen for North and Baltic Sea, respectively. The concentration value is calculated as the 5-year moving average of the flow-weighted mean concentration of all major rivers in milligrams total nitrogen per litre (mg/L).
