Europe And The Environment

Dr. Ludwig Krämer, born 1939, joined the European Commission in 1972, where he started his career dealing with consumer protection issues in the Competition Directorate-General. Dr. Krämer is the author of some 20 books and handbooks and 140 articles on EC environmental law. He is an environmental law professor in Bremen and regularly teaches at several European and non-European universities. In his teaching and speeches, he has inspired his audience and spurred many young people into working to protect the environment. On the occasion of his retirement from the Commission, a group of colleagues and friends who have had the privilege of benefiting from Ludwig Krämer's experience, learning and generosity, decided to honor him with a liber amicorum, which assembles legal essays on a number of EC environmental law subjects.
