    Air Quality 2021
    (Umweltbundesamt, 2022) Dauert, Ute; Feigenspan, Stefan; Kessinger, Susan; Minkos, Andrea; Deutschland. Umweltbundesamt; Mues, Andrea C.
    This evaluation of air quality in Germany in the year 2021 is based on preliminary data which has not yet been conclusively audited from the air monitoring networks of the federal states and the UBA, valid on 31th January 2022. Due to the comprehensive quality assurance within the monitoring networks, the final data will only be available in mid-2022. The currently available data allows for a general assessment of the past year. The following pollutants were subject to consideration: particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and ozone (O3). The evaluation and assessment of the air quality takes place in terms of the limit and target values as well as the new air quality guideline (AQG) levels of the World Health Organization.

    Antibiotics and Antibiotic Resistances in the Environment
    (2018) Adler, Nicole; Balzer, Frederike; Blondzik, Katrin; Brauer, Frank; Chorus, Ingrid; Ebert, Ina; Fiedler, Traute; Förster, Christina; Heidemeier, Joachim; Grummt, Tamara; Hein, Arne; Helmecke, Manuela; Hilliges, Falk; Kirst, Ingo; Konradi, Sabine; Klasen, Jutta; Küster, Anette; Krause, Bernd; Pirntke, Ulrike; Roskosch, Andrea; Schönfeld, Jens; Selinka, Hans-Christoph; Straff, Wolfgang; Szewzyk, Regine; Westphal-Settele, Kathi; Deutschland. Umweltbundesamt
    Environmental aspects have so far only partially been addressed in the discussion of antimicrobial resistance. To bring this issue into focus, ⁠UBA⁠ compiled background information and data on the topic 'Antibiotics and antimicrobial resistance in the environment'. The results show that previously considered requirements for reduction, from the perspective of UBA, are insufficient to adequately protect health and the environment. UBA sees urgent need for improvement and proposes possible options for action.

    Arzneimittel in der Umwelt - vermeiden, reduzieren, überwachen
    (2014) Deutschland. Umweltbundesamt
    Arzneimittel sind für die menschliche und tierische Gesundheit unverzichtbar. Der Preis für unsere gute Versorgung und unseren teilweise unkritischen Umgang mit Arzneimitteln ist eine zunehmende Belastung der Umwelt mit Rückständen von pharmazeutischen Wirkstoffen. Diese sind in der Umwelt oft langlebig und schädlich. Um unsere Gewässer und Böden in ihrer Funktion als Lebensraum und Trinkwasserressource langfristig zu schützen, muss der Eintrag von Arzneimitteln in die Umwelt so weit wie möglich begrenzt werden. In diesem Hintergrundpapier sollen Fakten und Zusammenhänge zum Thema "Arzneimittel in der Umwelt" sowie unterschiedliche Handlungsoptionen zur Reduzierung des Umwelteintrages aus Sicht desUBAallgemeinverständlich erläutert werden.

    Nitrogen - element with impacts
    (Umweltbundesamt, 2023) Geupel, Markus; Deutschland. Umweltbundesamt; Richter, Simone; Schlesinger, Lisa Marie
    Nitrogen emissions from almost all sectors of society lead to risks for humans and the environment. Sustainable management of nitrogen and its compounds therefore plays a major role in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a milestone towards sustainable nitrogen management, the German Environment Agency proposes a upper limit of 1,000 kt nitrogen per year for Germany. The limit covers almost all sources and includes not only agriculture but also other nitrogen relevant sectors such as transport and industry. The background paper explains the background on risks, summarises the current pollution situation in Germany and evaluates existing mitigation options against the new cap.
