This book deals with the new concept of biodiversity offsets. The aim of offsetting schemes is to achieve no let loss or even net gain of biodiversity. Offsets obey a mitigation hierarchy and reflect the precautionary and polluter-pays principle in regard to project impacts.Readers gain insights into current debates on biodiversity policies, with top experts outlining theoretical principles and the latest research findings. At the same time the focus is on practical application and case studies. Today there is a lively international discussion among practitioners and scientists on the optimal legal framework, metrics and design of habitat banks to ensure the success of biodiversity offsets and to minimise the risks of failure or misuse. Contributing to the debate, this volume presents the activities and practices of biodiversity offsetting already implemented in Europe in selected EU member states, and the lessons that can be learnt from them. Readers may be surprised at how much experience already exists in these countries. A further aim of the book is to offer grounded insights on the road ahead, and foster a more intensive and fruitful discussion on how offsetting can be extended and improved upon, so that it becomes a key and effective component of Europe’s biodiversity conservation policy framework.

Dieses Buch befasst sich mit Leitfragen in der Landschaftsplanung. Aufgabe der Landschaftsplanung ist es, die im Bundesnaturschutzgesetz genannten Ziele des Naturschutzes und der Landschaftspflege in Deutschland umzusetzen. Derzeit erlebt die örtliche Landschaftsplanung eine Renaissance, da die Kommunen mit ihr unter anderem die Auswirkungen der Gewinnung erneuerbarer Energien und der Siedlungsentwicklung auf Natur und Landschaft mildern und steuern wollen. Doch wo genau steht die örtliche Landschaftsplanung in Deutschland heute eigentlich? Rund 75 % der Kommunen besitzen einen Landschaftsplan. Kann die Landschaftsplanung bereits Erfolge vorweisen? Wie war die bisherige Steuerungswirkung eines Landschaftsplans? Wo genau entfalten die Landschaftspläne auch tatsächlich räumliche Wirkung? Diese Leitfragen beschäftigt ein ausgewähltes Autorinnen- und Autorenteam der verschiedensten Forschungseinrichtungen in Deutschland. Sie evaluieren das Planungsinstrument, zeigen neueste Landschaftsindikatoren auf und analysieren Trends der Landschaftsentwicklung und -planung. Das Buch enthält eine Fülle von Abbildungen, Grafiken und Karten, die ebenfalls den Zustand und die Entwicklung von Landschaft in Deutschland dokumentieren.

Modernism is celebrating milestone birthdays and remains an object of fascination in architecture and in art. A female and a male artist, both from Berlin, are participating in Rapport: at the Dresden Kulturpalast, they are showing contributions regarding the unfinished history of the modern era. They report about architecture and their era and thereby find a rapport between forms and patterns, recurrence and deviation.Alexa Kreissl starts out at points where everything still appears to be open-ended, or she opens them up herself. Buildings are broken down into their constituents and then put back together again anew - as wild, dynamic collages, works with an explosive nature. With narrow metal or wooden rods, she draws spaces within spaces, permeable and airy, in tension or in balance. The movable and the delicate aspects of her work refute the fixed frameworks of building and thinking.Tim Trantenroth is a translator. He continually translates elements of building into built images. Serial structures and surface patterns from the late modern era in the east and west are represented on transparent film or diffuse transparent paper. It touches upon a recent past era, as well as fundamental questions of creation between space and image, between surface and depth.With this artistic visual ambiguity in mind, one has a different outlook on the everyday built world.Rapport is the first publication by the Zentrum fur Baukultur Sachsen (ZfBK - Center for Building Culture Saxony) that was opened in 2017 in the converted Dresden Kulturpalast. The Kulturpalast itself is one of the incunabula of East German modernism, inaugurated fifty years ago.Text in English and German.
