climate legislation

A comprehensive concept for sustainable mobility needs legal instruments. These instruments may be embedded in transport law as well as in other areas, for example in the environmental regulations governing the planning and authorisation of roads. Transport law and all other relevant regulation can support the development of sustainable transport.

Environmental law comprises all norms designed to protect the environment. The protective laws related to installations, environmental media and substances (pollution control law, water law, soil protection law, waste law, chemicals law) make up the core of environmental law.
