Der Beitrag behandelt einen wichtigen Teilaspekt der gesetzgeberischen Bemühungen, Verfahren für immissionsschutzrechtliche Genehmigungen zu beschleunigen. Mit der Feststellung der sog. »einfachen« Vollständigkeit der Antragsunterlagen und der Erklärung gegenüber dem Antragsteller entsprechend § 7 Abs. 1 und 2 der 9. BImSchV soll ein belastbarer Startzeitpunkt gesetzt werden, von dem aus der Lauf der Bearbeitungsfristen für immissionsschutzrechtliche Genehmigungsverfahren in Gang gesetzt würde. Ob diese Hoffnung des Gesetzgebers sich jedoch erfüllen wird, ist aus Sicht der Autoren sowohl aus verfahrenspraktischen wie auch aus rechtsdogmatischen Gründen fraglich.
Africa’s water security is inextricable from the recent patterns of climate variability. Effective formulation and implementation of climate policies require efficient integration of disaster mitigation and sustainable development to eliminate maladaptation and enhance water security. However, practical implementation is still lacking in many African countries. This study aims to examine practical measures and strategies for the integration of sustainable development and disaster mitigation into climate policies to enhance water security in Africa. A systematic bibliometric and thematic analysis was conducted using 95 peer-reviewed articles within the period 2010 to 2025 from the Scopus database. Software and frameworks such as VOSviewer and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) were employed to analyze publication trends, co-authorship networks, keyword co-occurrence, and themes. The study revealed current research themes such as nature-based solutions for water security, climate-resilient infrastructure and technologies, and practical measures, such as eco-based adaptation and water energy food nexus, as some components of climate policy integration that can enhance water security in Africa. The study offers key policy recommendations for policymakers in the implementation of integrated climate policies adequate and effective enough to deal with water security issues in Africa.
The increasing demand for essential resources such as water, energy, and food, driven by rapid population growth, urban expansion, and industrialisation, poses a significant challenge for developing countries, which is further exacerbated by climate change. Implementation of climate change policies, therefore, requires adequate consideration of the interconnection between water, energy, and food executed on synergies and managing tradeoffs, which most often is lacking in some developing countries like Nigeria. This paper assesses the relevance of the water-energy-food (WEF) nexus approach and highlights its role in formulating sustainable climate policies. In this review, a narrative and exploratory approach was carried out through a literature search from international databases such as Google Scholar and Scopus to capture the full range of perspectives between the years 2002 and 2025 that have contributed to the emergence of the WEF nexus approach in formulating sustainable climate policies. Enhanced resource efficiency, improved resilience to climate change, reduced environmental degradation and innovation and technology development are some of the benefits of the WEF nexus approach. Given the intricate interconnections among these resources, integrating the WEF nexus into policymaking is essential for ensuring long-term resource security and sustainability. This approach fosters a comprehensive and strategic framework for embedding water, energy, and food considerations into climate governance

An international dispute between the Republic of Poland and Czechia over the Turów mine has recently resulted in infringement proceedings brought before the Court of Justice of the European Union concerning the implementation of the Water Framework Directive. This case and the judicial and extrajudicial processes surrounding it facilitate an assessment of the procedure provided for in Articles 258 to 260 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The assessment of this procedure is undertaken both in terms of the achievement of the internal policy objectives of the Member State and in terms of the effectiveness of the implementation of European law. We argue that this procedure (under Articles 258–260 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union) is effective in both connections, because it provides a wide range of opportunities for both the judicial authorities of the European Union and the Member States themselves to achieve their objectives.
Neben dem Erstreben der Klimaneutralität ist die Energieautarkie, gerade seit Beginn des Krieges in der Ukraine, wichtiges Ziel der Gesetzgebung. Vor allem der Ausbau der Windenergienutzung sollte durch verschiedene Gesetzesnovellen beschleunigt werden. Das Osterpaket, mitunter die größte energiepolitische Novelle seit Jahrzehnten, versprach Erleichterungen für die Prüfung des Artenschutzes bei Windenergie an Land. Hierbei sollte nicht nur das behördliche und gerichtliche Verfahrensrecht beschleunigt werden, sondern insbesondere das materielle Recht. Das zeigt sich durch die Konkretisierung der Prüfungsmaßstäbe im Artenschutzrecht. Mit der Neueinführung der §§ 45b-45d BNatSchG soll eine Standardisierung der Artenschutzprüfung für Windenergieanlagen an Land erreicht werden, um die oft beklagten langwidrigen Genehmigungsverfahren zu beschleunigen.
