  <description>Emissions to water are  an important element (describing the pressure) in assessment of the state of Europe’s environment (SoE). This database contains data on emissions of nutrients and hazardous substances to water, aggregated within River Basin Districts (RBDs), in the EEA member countries. The reporting process, endorsed by the Water Directors, and this publication of the data, enables all stakeholders to use the data and contributes to streamlining with other reporting processes.</description>

  <description>Land use shapes our environment in positive and negative ways. Productive land is a critical
resource for food and biomass production and land use strongly influences soil erosion and soil
functions such as carbon storage. Land management largely determines the beauty of Europe's
landscapes. It is important therefore to monitor land cover and land-use change through tools
such as Corine land cover. Data on land-cover change in Europe from 2000–2006 show that
growth in built-up areas and forest land leads to a continued loss of agricultural land. In turn,
global economic and environmental change will increasingly influence the way Europeans use
land (e.g. as communities work to mitigate and adapt to climate change). Policy responses are
needed to help resolve conflicting land-use demands and to guide land-use intensity to support
environmental land management.</description>

  <description>The Water Framework Directive, the single most important piece of legislation relating to the quality of Europe’s fresh and coastal waters, aims to attain good ecological and chemical status by 2015. For a number of freshwater bodies, substantial improvements will be required to meet this target.</description>

  <description>The continuing presence of a range of pollutants in a number of Europe's freshwaters threatens aquatic ecosystems and raises concerns for public health. Current reporting under the EU Water Framework Directive shows that a substantial proportion of Europe's freshwaters are at risk of not achieving the aim of 'good status' by 2015. Driven by the EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD), improvements in the collection and treatment of wastewater in some regions of Europe have led to a reduction in the discharge of some pollutants to fresh and coastal waters. Challenges remain, however, because UWWTD implementation remains incomplete and other significant sources of water pollution exist, especially agriculture and urban storm flows. The implementation of effective and timely measures, required under the WFD, needs to encompass a greater focus on controls 'at source' and the efficient use of resources including water, energy and chemicals.</description>

  <description>Europe's freshwaters are affected by water scarcity, droughts, floods and physical modifications. Many water bodies are at risk of failing to meet the aim of the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD) to achieve good status by 2015. Future policies should encourage demand management through actions such as increasing water efficiency. In addition, water management will benefit from applying an ecosystems perspective, using floodplains and groundwater aquifers for storing water, and making room (space) for rivers.</description>
