The Commission invites all people and stakeholders to share their thoughts on how to improve access to environmental data by 30 April 2025.

Ground level ozone (O3) is a harmful air pollutant that can travel long distances from its source. New research has estimated that 56.7% of deaths attributed to this air pollutant in Europe are due to O3 transported from outside the region.

Researchers have calculated that for every dollar in the equity holding portfolios of Europe’s 10 largest banks, 26 cents are highly dependent on ecosystem services (ES).

Researchers have modelled the global spread of silverleaf nightshade – an invasive species that poses a threat to agriculture and ecosystems – and shown which factors influence its distribution.

A new study has outlined how academia, government, industry, civil society and the environment can come together to tackle the growing challenge of microplastic pollution.

Invasive plants pose a multi-faceted threat in Europe, but deciding which species to eradicate, control or monitor remains a challenge. New work by Italian scientists highlights a potential way forward for decision-makers.

A new analysis of 625 studies from 63 countries shows that the global expansion of built-up areas has fundamentally degraded water quality across the globe and suggests increases in forest cover can help reduce water pollution risks.

The call for proposals will support research and innovation projects to identify, analyse, and understand transformation processes that may halt and reverse biodiversity decline.

Issue 612: This study explores participatory fire-management strategies, including landscape values from experts and local people, to strengthen wildfire-prone regions by creating resilient landscapes that protect ecological and social functions.

Issue 612: Researchers have developed a framework for evaluating technologies that reduce marine plastic pollution.
