Fünfter Bodenschutzbericht der Bundesregierung

The reason for this report is the German Bundestag's approval of October 26, 2000 for the motion "Cross-border cooperation to strengthen soil protection" (Bundestag printed paper 14/2567). Subsequent to the previous reports, this Fifth Soil Protection Report summarizes the main developments and progress in soil protection for the 19th legislative period (2017 to 2021). Among other things, contributions from the federal departments as well as the federal states and advisory bodies were taken into account.
