In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, cooling technologies based on natural refrigerants with negligible or insignificant effect on the environment and climate have experienced a renaissance in recent years. A variety of highly efficient applications has been developed and has now reached a technical level that makes their use economically viable.

This guidance document has been developed in the project “Implementation and enforcement of EU regulations on fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) and ozone-depleting substances (ODS) in Bulgaria”. The objective of the document is to support Bulgaria in maximising its regulatory and enforcement capabilities with a focus on market surveillance and inspections of companies.

This report summarises the findings and results of the project “Implementation and enforcement of EU regulations on fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) and ozone-depleting substances (ODS) in Bulgaria”. The project’s objective was to identify potential for improving the implementation and enforcement of different EU-regulations, e.g. of Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014, in Bulgaria.

Ziel des Projektes war es, Empfehlungen für eine Testbatterie zur ökotoxikologischen Bewertung der Umweltverträglichkeit von Bauprodukten zu erarbeiten, die zur europäischen Harmonisierung von Prüfmethoden beitragen. 20 durch Screening-Tests ausgewählte Bauprodukte wurden ökotoxikologisch untersucht.

The prize of beauty: Every year, there are up to twelve new collections in the clothing stores on Germany's high streets. But this fast fashion is having a huge impact on the environment and on the people who live in manufacturing countries. /

Foods carry a significant ecological backpack. Their production requires land area, consumes water and generates greenhouse gas emissions. Sadly, private households in Germany alone incur some 6.7 million tonnes of food waste every year. About one third of all the food eaten away from home ends up being discarded.

Zur Effizienzsteigerung der Stromerzeugung aus regenerativen Energiequellen können Nanomaterialien einen wichtigen Beitrag leisten. Dieses Datenblatt will hierzu einen Überblick geben. Dabei ist zu berücksichtigen, dass auf diesem Gebiet sehr viel geforscht wird, Anwendungen aber erst vereinzelt auf den Markt kommen.

Die Bundesregierung spricht sich dafür aus, Rohstoffe sparsam und effizient zu nutzen. Hierfür ist es unerlässlich, den Umfang der direkten und indirekten Rohstoffnutzung zu kennen und zu identifizieren, was diese Nutzung beeinflusst.

Die vorliegende Vertiefungsanalyse untersucht längerfristige Veränderungen im Umweltbewusstsein. Sozialwissenschaftliche Daten des Umweltbundesamts aus den letzten zwanzig Jahren werden im Zeitvergleich untersucht. Außerdem werden externe Quellen wie z. B. das Eurobarometer und Marktforschungsdaten einbezogen.
