The solution to reducing the climate and environmental impact of waste: a circular economy.
The construction industry 🏗 plays an important role in combating the waste of resources. Around 55% of all waste produced in Germany each year is construction and demolition waste. Added to this is the alteration of natural soils and increasing soil sealing. In one month, around 1600 hectares - the equivalent of over 2,000 football pitches - are designated for sealing. Even in [...]
Making clever use of the heatwave
The current temperatures are making us realise just how much energy the sun has to offer. Unfortunately, much of it remains unutilised, even though it could make an important contribution to climate protection. In addition to generating electricity through photovoltaic systems, the heat can also be utilised directly via solar thermal energy - in summer for heating drinking water and in winter to support the heating system. The problem [...]
Parliamentary evening in Berlin: As a member of Munitect, M&P Nord supports the development of solutions for the clearance of old munitions in the North and Baltic Seas
Considerable quantities of munitions were dumped in the North Sea and Baltic Sea after both world wars. Supposedly safe to dispose of at the time, these military legacies pose an ever-increasing danger to humans and the environment due to their progressive decay. Not only the increasing economic utilisation of the oceans, e.g. for fishing and the production of renewable energies, [...]
Federal government increases protection for grasshoppers and species-rich forests
The broad-leaved sabrewing (Barbitistes serricauda) has its worldwide distribution centre in Germany. However, little is known about this insect species as it lives hidden in the treetops and its song is not audible to the human ear as it is in the ultrasonic range. As part of the federal government's "Biodiversity" programme, the project "ELSA - [...]

Interpretation of historical aerial photographs from the time of the Second World War - Explosive bomb craters
Various types of munitions were used in the Allied bombing campaign, such as explosive, incendiary and fragmentation bombs and aerial mines. In a previous article, the topic of explosive bomb craters, their appearance and recognisability as well as the use of historical aerial photographs in the pre-discovery of explosive ordnance was explained. This article will now look at further aspects of the topic of explosive bombs (mode of action, detonation and significance [...]).
New marine protected area in the north-east Atlantic
In October 2021, 15 ministers from the OSPAR Commission met in Portugal. One objective was to designate a further high seas marine protected area for seabirds in the North-East Atlantic. Covering around 60,000 square kilometres, the area includes the North Atlantic High Seas Current and the Evlanov Sea Basin. The area was selected as a marine protected area on the basis of tracking data because it is considered an important feeding area for seabirds [...]

Obligation to bear the costs of evacuation due to the defusing of explosive bombs
Between 1940 and the end of the Second World War in 1945, around 2 million tonnes of bombs were dropped over Germany. A total of 23,000 tonnes of bombs were dropped on Hanover alone during 129 raids during the Second World War, of which around 10-15 % did not explode. These continue to pose a danger, as previous explosive ordnance finds have clearly shown that [...]
