The report describes the activity of provincial-level disaggregation of air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions estimated in the ISPRA national emissions inventory, carried out using a top-down approach for the years from 1990 to 2023.

The LIFE Perdix project, Italian Grey Partridge Reintroduction in Italy, concluded in December 2025 after six years of work. It was launched in response to the urgent need to reverse the loss of this key component of Italy’s biodiversity.

Environmental Education and Training Notebook No. 7/2026,collects the reports of university students who completed a curricular internship at ISPRA in 2024. .

The report outlines Italy’s emissions profile from 1990 to 2024, highlighting ongoing trends and identifying the key factors that influence the evolution of greenhouse gas emissions.

The paper industry in Italy is a sector of excellence that has maintained its attention over the years to all those issues that have been incorporated into the PNRR, in particular the issue of ecology.

This volume provides a methodological guide for professionals, technical experts, and Public Administrations involved in the protection of marine and coastal biodiversity. The Manual was developed within the framework of the LIFE SEA.NET project, “Urgent Actions for the Implementation of the Marine Natura 2000 Network” (LIFE20 GIE/IT/000763), with the aim of supporting the initiatives of the Italian Ministry for the Environment and Energy Security in strengthening and optimizing the application of the Appropriate Assessment (AA) procedure in marine and coastal-marine sites of the EU Natura 2000 Network

ISPRA has published “Educate, Communicate, Connect – The educational format of the LIFE SIC2SIC project,” which retraces an environmental education experience carried out in 48 schools involving more than 4,200 students.

These Guidelines were developed within the framework of major European collaborative initiatives, including the LIFE Programme project Conceptu Maris, and the subsequent After-LIFE roadmap, the Fixed Line Transect -Mediterranean Monitoring Network and the IMPEL FLT-Maritime Transborder Transects networking initiatives.

Recent decades have been characterized by unprecedented positive temperature anomalies at the global, European, and national scales. In addition to a significant rise in average temperatures, there is clear evidence of an increase in the frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme events. Urban environments exhibit heightened vulnerability to climate-change impacts owing to their high population density, complex built infrastructure and concentration of socio‑economic activities, which collectively amplify exposure and sensitivity to thermal stress, hydrometeorological extremes, and related cascading risks.
