The European Energy Atlas has been published at a time when EU member states are discussing their energy and climate strategies for 2030, the so-called Clean Energy Package. These goals and regulations will shape European energy and climate policy for the coming decades. They will also be crucial for whether we can effectively combat climate change and limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius.

'Plastic Atlas-Asia' is a global environmental report that contains data and facts about the plastic-filled Earth, especially the plastic problem in Asia, in text, statistics, and graphics. It is the third topic in the Korean version of the 'Atlas ATLAS' series of global environmental reports by the German Heinrich Böll Foundation (Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung), following 'Coal Atlas' and 'Plastic Atlas-World Edition'.
The coal boom has negative consequences for humans and nature that outweigh its economic benefits. Coal does not just kill the climate. In coal mines, terrible working conditions are rife. Accidents are commonplace. The environmental and health costs linked to the use of coal to generate electricity are enormous. The atlas provides insights on how turning away from fossil (and nuclear) fuels towards renewable energy can offer huge economic and social opportunities.
This publication is a translation of the South Korea case studies section in the first edition of the World Nuclear Waste Report published in 2019. It attempts to spark a debate in South Korea on the complexities of dealing with nuclear waste. For the last decade since the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, many civil organisations, experts and citizens have denounced the South Korean government's continued dependence on, and management, and development of nuclear power plants but to no avail.
With the increasing deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies across society, it is important to understand in which ways AI may accelerate or impede climate progress, and how various stakeholders can guide those developments.
