Contaminated air and poisonous rivers this is what environmental pollution in the GDR is often associated with. But how did the Federal Republic react to the environmental problems crossing the border from the East? How did representatives of both German states discuss this subject? This study examines environmental negotiations to shed light on the entanglements of politics, conservation, economics, and civil society between East and West.
