Wie werden verschiedene Verfahren zur Entnahme von CO₂ aus der Atmosphäre von Stakeholdern in unterschiedlichen Regionen Deutschlands wahrgenommen? Dieser Frage sind Workshops des Projektes "BioNET - Multi-stage assessment of biobased negative emission technologies"1 nachgegangen, um...

This paper analyses the impact of carbon pricing on residential heating affordability using a theoretical household model with endogenous choice of a renewable heating technology. We compare two compensation policies: a renewable heating subsidy and a lump-sum transfer. The subsidy is the most...

Great efforts in biotechnology are being made to reduce the use of fossil fuels and to drive a transition toward a bioeconomy. However, these early-stage technical concepts also carry sustainability risks at ecological, social and economic levels due to large-scale biomass flows when scaled to...

How are different processes for removing CO2 from the atmosphere perceived by stakeholders in different regions of Germany? This question was explored in workshops of the project BioNET ("Multistage assessment of biobased negative emission technologies")1 in order to beter understand the...

The global increase in greenhouse gases is also changing the climate conditions more severely in Germany. This particularly affects local cultivated landscapes, which cover large parts of Germany and are already experiencing a wide range of ecological problems. Although agricultural land use...

With months of drought, hot summers and flooding, global warming has also become increasingly apparent in Germany over recent years. The Climate Protection Act, which was amended in 2021, therefore aims to achieve climate neutrality by 2045. At the same time, a favourable conservation status for...

Growing income inequality amplifies social vulnerability to climate change. By linking global with local scenario building for the case of Pune, our approach identifies future trends in inequality and assesses to which degree policy measures considered in Pune account for the climate...

Seit über zehn Jahren wird in Deutschland eine "neue Wohnungsfrage" diskutiert, die die Knappheit und die Bezahlbarkeit des Wohnens in Großstädten und Ballungsräumen adressiert Der Mangel an sozialem Wohnungsbau ist einer der zahlreichen Faktoren, die zur Knappheit preiswerter bzw....

Der vorliegende Bericht befasst sich mit den Flächennutzungen und -umwandlungen der letzten 30 Jahre in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, mit besonderem Fokus auf den Betrachtungszeitraum 2016-2020. Zudem werden die politischen Ziele der Bundesregierung mit Bezug zu Flächenumwandlung...

Exclusion zones, like protected areas or setback distances, are the most common policy instrument to mitigate environmental impacts of human land-use, including the deployment of renewable energy sources. While exclusion zones may provide environmental benefits, they may also bring about...
