7. Good Governance Global Challenges UN International Environmental Governance / UN water program Climate change + World food crisis+ Worsening conditions in Africa Endangering substantially the Millennium Development goals to reduce poverty and hunger by 50% at 2010 Examples: Learning to cope with climate change Access to water resources - increase of water levels, regional changes of climate Reducing the worlds carbon footprint Technologies to reduce the Co2 No2 Basel Convention International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC 2001) was predicting an increasing variability of rainfalls with enormous precipitation, flooding or unusual long drought periods. This will influence the quality and availability of freshwater resources in Central Europe even.

9. Good Governance National Challenges Food security Environmental concerns and negative impacts (diseases shrimp industry / environmental damages) Habitat alteration Biodiversity, aliens interactions with local fauna flora Management power of national government for regulatory and enforcement Market demands and consumer demands for social ethical and environmental sustainable production methods as driver Standards supporting the formal process Social and ethical issues Regulations related to fisheries exist � main problem is compliance

10. Germany Emissions of Agriculture Animal production is sourcing 50% of the German emissions of climate relevant gases like Methane and N2O. Emissions from Agriculture into soil and water bodies are contributing to pollution mainly. They are source of acidification and eutrophication. 90% of all Ammonia emissions are coming from agriculture. Until 2010 Germany will reduce the Ammonia emissions at European and at international level to 550 kt per annum. That means a reduction of 28 % related to the year of references, which is 1990. Where is the focus ot the legislation in agriculture? Methan and Nitrous Oxide as hazardous pollutants and responsible for the climate change are in the focus of the environmental legislation. Agriculture is producing 90 % of all ammonia emissions and Ammonia is also the main problem of aquaculture. The German contribution to the Kyoto protocol is the reduction of Ammonia emission to a limit of 550 kt per annum means 28% less than in the year 1990. Therefore Ammonia reduction will the main topic if we are talking about waste water from aquaculture. Where is the focus ot the legislation in agriculture?
