This lecture by the instructor covers environmental impact studies with a focus on nature, including topics such as environmental monitoring of construction sites, legal aspects, wildlife studies, and the revitalization of watercourses. The presentation delves into the importance of insects in Switzerland, the destruction of environments due to road construction, and measures for ecological compensation. The lecture also discusses specific case studies, such as the H189 project, and emphasizes the need for biological monitoring and physical protection of the environment. Various measures for environmental protection and revitalization, such as creating ponds, planting trees, and seeding regional grain mixtures, are explored in detail.
