  4. CW: Assessment of the pressures driving soil degradation in Europe

    This report delves into the intricate interplay between drivers, pressures and impacts on soil in the 32 Member States of the European Environment Agency (EEA), along with six cooperating countries from the West Balkans, Ukraine and UK, shedding light on the multifaceted challenges facing soil conservation efforts. Our analysis shows the complex interactions among various factors, both anthropogenic and natural, shaping soil degradation processes and their subsequent consequences. We highlight key findings, including the significant impacts of soil degradation on agriculture, ecosystem resilience, water quality, biodiversity, and human health, underscoring the urgent need for comprehensive soil management strategies. Moreover, our examination of citizen science initiatives underlines the importance of engaging the public in soil monitoring and conservation efforts. This work emphasises the policy relevance of promoting sustainable soil governance frameworks, supported by research, innovation, and robust soil monitoring schemes, to safeguard soil health and ensure the long-term resilience of ecosystems.

  5. Wie steht es um die Luftqualität in Städten Europas? Die EU-Umweltagentur gibt in einer Liste von mehr als 320 Städten Antworten. Gut schneiden vor allem Städte in Schweden und Finnland ab. Und wo landen die deutschen?

  6. @rivoluzioneurbanamobilita
    The #EuropeanEnvironmentAgency (#EEA) has released its report on #airpollution for 2022. The situation in #Italy is very bad, especially in the Po Valley. We are talking here about #carcinogens, cancer-causing pollutants. Action must be taken on all possible levers and levels, including #privatetraffic, which causes much of the #PM10 and #PM2p5 #particulates and almost all of the nitrogen oxides #no2.

    Thanks @mlcr84

  8. AI data centres could have a carbon footprint that matches a small European country, a new study finds.

    AI systems could produce 80 million tons of CO₂ in 2025 and as much water as the world’s bottled water industry.

    But it’s hard to measure as tech companies do not release all of the details.

  9. Europe needs to prepare faster for climate risks, says European Environment Agency.

    Europe is the fastest warming continent in the world!

    Particularly urgent are risks to: marine, coastal (and other) ecosystems, coastal and river flooding, risks to food production, health risks from heatwaves, risks from wildfires.

  10. Dirty air killed more than half a million people in the EU in 2021, half of the deaths could have been avoided by cutting pollution to the limits recommended by doctors.

    Researchers from the European Environment Agency attributed 253,000 early deaths to concentrations of fine particulates known as PM2.5, 52,000 deaths to excessive levels of nitrogen dioxide and 22,000 deaths from exposure to excessive levels of ozone

  11. Extreme weather conditions in Europe have killed almost 195,000 people and caused economic losses of more than 560 billion euros since 1980, the European Environment Agency said Wednesday.

    Of the 560 billion euros in losses, only 170 billion, or 30%, were insured, the EEA said, as it launched a new online portal collating recent data on the impact of extreme weather.
