Plastic is now found virtually everywhere in the environment – including in our rivers. But how does it get there, even in a country like Germany with a comparatively well-functioning waste management and recycling system? And what needs to change to prevent plastic from entering rivers and, ultimately, the oceans? Doris Knoblauch, Director of the Resources Programme at Ecologic Institute, discussed these questions on the German radio programme WDR 5 Quarks – Wissenschaft und mehr.

The EU’s Carbon Removals and Carbon Farming (CRCF) Regulation has established a framework for the certification of carbon farming. Yet credible certificates alone will not create demand. In an article published in Ökologisches Wirtschaften, Aaron Scheid of Ecologic Institute explains why binding climate targets for the agricultural sector are also needed.

Geopolitical tensions, volatile energy markets and the focus on strategic autonomy have pushed industrial competitiveness to the top of the political agenda. European climate policy therefore requires close coordination between emissions reduction, investment security and competitiveness. In a background paper, Ariadne researchers summarise how governance, financing, industrial transformation, the EU Emissions Trading Scheme and energy infrastructure need to simultaneously ensure decarbonisation, economic resilience and public support.
