WTO Ministerial Conferences' site events represent unique occasions for trade and environment experts to meet and exchange opinions. Large numbers of high level policy makers, researchers and academics as well as representatives from civil society groups from all over the world come together to discuss recent developments in the area, conflicts between trade, environment and sustainable development, and potential solutions. Ecologic participated in a number of the site events at the Seattle Ministerial and reported their outcomes to the German Federal Environmental Agency.

In this study, Ecologic reviewed the development of Bulgaria's environmental quality and provided an overview of the development of Bulgaria's environmental policy, including its legal foundations and environmental policy instruments. The analysis' main focus was on progress and existing deficits in Bulgaria's adoption of the European Union's environmental Acquis communautaire. On this basis, the analysis also identified areas in which extensive advising and investments by bilateral and multilateral institutions were needed to support Bulgaria in the area of environmental policy as it moves toward European Union membership. The study was prepared for experts in national environmental administrations and multilateral institutions.

The Eastern enlargement of the EU poses major challenges for German and European environmental policy. On the one hand, the process of political and economic transformation in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe offers a unique opportunity to substantially improve the state of the environment in the whole of Europe. On the other hand, there is a serious risk that the level of environmental protection will suffer – perhaps even that which has already been achieved so far will be undone - if an 'environmentally friendly' political strategy of Eastern enlargement should fail.

Ecologic analysed and compared different sources of data on the production and trade in Ozone Depleting Substances. Reporting data on production, imports and exports of ozone depleting substances (ODS) is one of the most fundamental bases for checking compliance with the Montreal Protocol. There are different sources for generating the necessary data. The European Commission has generally relied on the reporting by producers and importers/exporters as required under Article 17 of Regulation (EC) 3093/94 to generate the needed information. These data have provided the basis for submitting the annual data required under Article 7 of the Montreal Protocol to the Secretariat of the Protocol in Nairobi.

Ecologic provided an overview of the state of implementation of the Montreal Protocol by assembling 15 case studies on the efforts of various EU Member States in implementing measures. The case studies focused on three aspects: planned phase-out scenarios and measures, legislation and policy instruments used to ensure implementation, and controlling instruments that provide an understanding of the actual extent of implementation.
