Zusammenfassung englisch
The drivers and impacts of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution are highly interlinked, yet current research and policy responses to meet the challenges remains fragmented, leaving important gaps in the understanding of systemic linkages and impacts on both ecosystems and people. This report helps bridge that gap by providing a cross-sectoral analytical perspective. It identifies the shared drivers and interactions that connect these crises, illustrates their impacts on ecosystems and human health, and highlights their socioeconomic effects.

Integrated Approaches to Addressing the Triple Planetary Crisis: Country Best Practices
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
The triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution threatens the long-term sustainability of human development and well-being. Addressing these crises requires integrated approaches since underlying drivers and pressures are strongly interconnected. This policy paper analyses examples of best practices of integrated solutions, as well as cross-sectoral governance and policy mechanisms identified in national policies and strategies of seven country case studies from different regions in the world: Brazil, Rwanda, Colombia, Sweden, Japan, New Zealand, and Panama.
Moving from interconnected crises to systemic solutions
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
The drivers and effects of the triple plenatary crisis of climate change, biodiveristy loss and environmental pollution are highly interconneted and can only be effectively addressed through systemic, cross-sectoral, and justice-oriented approaches. This report provides an integrated perspective by examining three mutually reinforcing pathways: governing societal metabolism and resource use through efficiency, sufficiency, and equity; scaling up nature-based solutions to restore ecosystems, reduce emissions, and curb pollution while enhancing well-being; and advancing systemic transformation that reorganizes governance, markets, and societal values to embed justice and resilience.
