Air Protection in the European Union Member States examines the EU members' air protection policies, by taking into consideration wider political, social and economic perspectives. The book is divided into four chapters, each focusing on different aspects of the European Union's environmental policies and the member states' air protection efforts: Green and Smart - The Development of the European Union's Environmental Policies, Ever Cleaner Union and the Air Protection Concept, Trends of Air Pollution in the European Union - Comparative Perspective, and In Depth Case Studies. These chapters provide a comparative approach to emerging emission trends within the EU, paying particular attention to key events spanning 2020-2023, such as the implementation of the Green Deal, the reinterpretation of the meaning of public health caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the strategic withdrawal from hydrocarbons accelerate by the outbreak of war in Ukraine. Throughout the book, three main categories of states are characterised: leaders, second-raters, and laggards. Air Protection in the European Union Member States presents a combination of general discussions, legislative analyses, comparative studies, and detailed case studies, demonstrating the origin, development, and trends in air protection policies within the European Union. This uniquely interdisciplinary book will be a vital guide for students, researchers and teachers in the fields of global studies, international relations, political and economic science.

Book excerpt: This book offers a window into the mechanisms that drive events when countries with poor track records in environmental protection and low administrative capacity, join an organisation with ambitious environmental regulatory regimes, which include some of the highest environmental protections standards in the world. This book examines the institutional building capacity in Romania after two decades of the development of the EU's environmental policy on elaboration, transposition, implementation, monitoring and institutional building. The book examines how Romania has fared as one of the least environmentally friendly EU member states, and poses the following questions. What are the limits of Europeanisation in the area of public policies? What is the reason why, despite the overwhelming public interest in environmental issues, and widespread agreement that urgent action to protect the environment and prevent catastrophic climate change are paramount, the pace of achieving the goals is remains slow. Why do policies fail? This book brings together several case studies focusing on the evolution of environmental policies in Romania over the last twenty years, with a special focus on the post-accession period (2007 onwards). The book provides an analysis of policies, where progress is less than satisfactory, and examines why this is the case.

Book excerpt: First published in 1994. ln Protecting the Periphery the editors present a series of papers revealing the impact of EU policies on environmental quality in regions at the edge of the European Union and in those lying just outside it. In many cases these regions contain habitats and landscapes of international importance; they have also often escaped some of the environmental damage caused by industrialization. But, as the papers' reveal, attempts by the EU to safeguard these environmental benefits are often contradicted by the EU’s own development policies, bringing air pollution from new roads, contamination from new industries, and leading to habitat destruction from modern agricultural practices and increases in tourism. As the Union pushes for the deepening of the integration process, including completing the internal market, the pressures on the periphery's environment are increasing. Furthermore, the efforts of the periphery to catch-up economically with the developed core can often heighten the tension between economic considerations on the one hand and the need for environmental protection on the other. The studies in this book examine the ambivalent responses to EU environmental policy among policy-makers and environmentalists in the periphery. Both the willingness as well as the capacity of the periphery to protect its environmental heritage are explored. In particular, the administrative capacity, institutional arrangements, political culture as well as economic development needs are taken into account in an examination of the nature of the periphery’s response to and implementation of Union environmental policy. The book will appeal to policy-makers and academics in the countries of the European periphery and to analysts of European policy-making everywhere, especially those concerned with environmental policy and politics.

Book excerpt: This is the third state and outlook report on the European environment produced by the European Environment Agency (EEA) since 1994. The last report, published in 1999 concluded that, despite 25 years of Community environmental policy, environmental quality in the European Union (EU) was mixed and that the unsustainable development of some key economic sectors was the major barrier to further improvements. That remains the EEA's key conclusion, despite significant progress on some issues demonstrating that environmental policy works. The next report is due in 2010, and the EEA intends to have played its part in reversing unsustainable trends in sectors such as energy, agriculture and transport. This report is in four parts: (A) an integrated assessment of the atmospheric, aquatic and terrestrial environment; (B) a core set of indicators, including pollution, biodiversity, climate change, agriculture, energy, fisheries and transport; (C) country analysis; and (D) a bibliography of EEA publications since 2000.

Book excerpt: The effect that industry has on the environment is one factor that has forced the need for stringent regulation. The increase in legislation emanating from Brussels means that it is vital for environmental managers and their advisers to be aware of the need for compliance if they are to avoid potentially onerous penalties. EU rules also act as a guide to the national rules that apply throughout the member states and as a gauge to predict future developments. European Union Environmental Law covers: safety and protection waste management water air indoor and occupational exposure other EU environmental issues Within each section the author incorporates case studies and sets out practical advice on the environmental issues that concern industry. Each chapter also offers an assessment of the completeness and future direction of EU legislation and highlights potential problem areas for industry. European Union Environmental Law contains a glossary of EU environmental terms and a checklist offering advice on implementing an informal environmental audit. Aimed at all those within industry who are responsible for the impact of their business on the environment and all practitioners, consultants and students of EU environmental policy, this book is the essential practical guide.

Comprising five comprehensive parts, it includes in-depth case studies of contemporary policy issues such as climate change, genetically modified organisms and trans-Atlantic relations, as well as an assessment of how well the EU is responding to new challenges such as enlargement, environmental policy integration and sustainability. The book's aim is to look forward and ask whether the EU is prepared or even able to respond to the 'new' governance challenges posed by the perceived need to use 'new' policy instruments and processes to 'mainstream' environmental thinking in all EU policy sectors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No other European laws are so frequently violated as environmental directives. This informative and illuminating volume explains why member states have repeatedly failed to comply with European Environmental Law. It challenges the assumption that non-compliance is merely a southern problem. By critically comparing and analyzing Spain and Germany, the volume demonstrates that both northern leaders and southern laggards face compliance problems if a European policy is not compatible with domestic regulatory structures. The North-South divide is therefore much more complex than previously thought. Examining each country’s capabilities of shaping European policies according to its environmental concerns and economic interests, the book debates the possible outcomes if the European Union does not come to terms with the leader-laggards dynamics in environmental policy-making. It will be a prime resource for anyone concerned with environmental policy-making and law, particularly within the EU, as well as those interested in environmental and political geography.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time, the condition of the lower levels of the atmosphere has been considered to be less of a problem in international law and politics than the condition of the upper layers. However, there has been a shift. Concern about the state of our 'ambient' air is rising sharply. Increasingly, severe measures have been taken to address the deterioration of the 'lower level' atmosphere due to the impact of such diverse agents as 'smog' producing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's) or low level Ozone, and various forms of 'fine dust.' In certain areas, such as Northern Italy, the quality of the ambient air is becoming a major health hazard. The measures taken to address this problem, notably in respect to the restricted use of vehicles in urban areas, have already had more than a negligible impact on daily life. The starting-point of this book is the study of the condition of ambient air in the Italian region of the Emilia-Romagna/Po Valley, which is an interesting example. Together with the Ruhr-Moselle Valley in Germany, this Italian region is the area with the worst air quality in Europe. Following a scientific introduction to the quite complicated issues at stake, the first part of the book discusses the management of ambient air in this part of Europe, at the local and regional level, as seen by those who have specific responsibilities for its management. In Part II, the legal framework of the protection of ambient air is discussed from the international legal point of view, as well as from the perspective of European Community law, notably the 1996 Framework Directive on ambient air quality assessment and management and its detailed 'daughter' directives. These relatively recently enacted instruments of Community law are no longer considered adequate to deal with the current atmospheric problems. The Member States of the European Union have decided that they should be replaced by an entirely new 'integrated' and 'comprehensive' Directive on Ambient Air Quality and Cleaner Air for Europe. The book concludes with a short discussion of this new European legislation by one of its principal drafters. As the protection of ambient air is so clearly gaining in importance, a book dedicated to the latest legal developments in this field will be of utmost significance to anyone interested in the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents revised guideline values for the four most common air pollutants - particulate matter, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide - based on a recent review of the accumulated scientific evidence. The rationale for selection of each guideline value is supported by a synthesis of information emerging from research on the health effects of each pollutant. As a result, these guidelines now also apply globally. They can be read in conjunction with Air quality guidelines for Europe, 2nd edition, which is still the authority on guideline values for all other air pollutants. As well as revised guideline values, this book makes a brief yet comprehensive review of the issues affecting the application of the guidelines in risk assessment and policy development. Further, it summarizes information on: . pollution sources and levels in various parts of the world, . population exposure and characteristics affecting sensitivity to pollution, . methods for quantifying the health burden of air pollution, and . the use of guidelines in developing air quality standards and other policy tools. Finally, the special case of indoor air pollution is explored. Prepared by a large team of renowned international experts who considered conditions in various parts of the globe, these guidelines are applicable throughout the world. They provide reliable guidance for policy-makers everywhere when considering the various options for air quality management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union has succeeded in bringing into force an impressive package of regulatory measures aiming to provide a high level of environmental protection across the EU. As a result, scholars, students and practitioners are confronted with the challenge of gaining insight into this complex legislative framework and its effects. This wide-ranging Research Handbook investigates a multitude of substantive issues including waste, nature conservation, air pollution, water quality protection, chemical substantives and genetically modified organisms. Based on contributions developed by 40 environmental law scholars, this comprehensive Research Handbook discusses how the EU has used its regulatory power to steer towards environmentally friendly behaviour, delving into the deep concerns related to the compliance with and enforcement of EU environmental law. It also highlights the important role of civil society's use of environmental procedural rights, and characterizes how the CJEU case law has contributed to the effective implementation of EU environmental legislation. Shedding light on the institutional, horizontal and sectoral dimensions of EU environmental law, the Research Handbook on EU Environmental Law will be a key resource for environmental law scholars both in the EU and worldwide, whilst also being of value to environmental law practitioners working in EU member states.
