More than 150 experts discussed the challenges and approaches of future air pollution control policy on the occasion of the European Year of Air. Although there is widespread compliance with the limits on air pollution concentrations in Germany, it is not enough to adequately protect human health and the environment. Modern air pollution control requires integrative approaches – one approach is to take the issue into consideration and implement plans in concert with policies on noise protection, livestock management and climate protection.
The UBA’s motto, For our environment (“Für Mensch und Umwelt”), sums up our mission pretty well, we feel. In this video we give an insight into our work.
