Abstract
The countryside in the Czech-German-Polish Triangle at the beginning of the 1990s was seriously damaged by a high concentration of mining and industry sites (dumps, mine shafts, extensive erosion from surface mining) as well as suffering from one of the highest emission densities in Europe. The consequences for nature were se-vere (forest damages, water contamination etc.). In view of these problems, cross-border development concepts were drawn up, helping to significantly improve the environ-mental situation. The IOER is currently evaluating the development of the environ-mental situation from 1990 to 2006, looking at such issues as landscape and nature pro-tection and the effects of the cross-border collaboration. Some results are presented in this article.
Keywords: Black Triangle, landscape and nature protection in the Black Triangle
