The International Seabed Authority, ISA, controls the areas beyond national jurisdiction and its mineral deposits and has the obligation to effectively protect the marine environment from the potentially harmful effects of exploration and extraction activities. What is required is appropriate mining techniques and that tests are carried out to ensure that there will be no adverse effects.

This report describes the scientific background, relevant preliminary considerations and experimental work performed for the development of a future OECD Test Guideline on determining solubility and dissolution rate of nanomaterials in aqueous environmental media.

This report explains the calculation of the updated typical greenhouse gas emission values for the cultivation of agricultural raw materials for NUTS 2 regions in Germany and presents the results.

Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) can neither conserve the current nor restore the pre-industrial climate. It would create an unpredictable new global climate with significant regional impacts. This brochure explains the risks of SRM for food security, justice and actual climate action. It explains the various SRM approaches and how they are supposed to work.

On the one hand, the research project updated the calculation basis of the model used by the Federal Environment Agency to calculate waste oil flows, and on the other hand, analyses of waste oils were carried out to examine their reprocessability.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in the U.S. with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in the UK with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in South Africa with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in New Zealand with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in Indonesia with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in Egypt with regard to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the climate and other socio-economic policies that it faces. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and estimate the mitigation potential of those options.

This report describes the current state of agriculture in China, focusing on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it produces and the relevant climate and other socioeconomic policies that affect its development. We identify options that could reduce agricultural emissions and review mitigation potential of those options.
