Area of potentially contaminated soils recovered for new uses |
|---|---|
| Target |
15.3 By 2030, combat desertification, restore degraded land and soil, including land affected by desertification, drought and floods, and strive to achieve a land degradation-neutral world |
| Goal |
15- Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss |
| Definition |
Area of potentially contaminated soils recovered for new uses, accumulated since 2005 and percentage with respect to the potentially contaminated area. A soil is considered to have been recovered if it has a Declaration of Soil Quality as provided for in Law 4/2015, of June 25, for the prevention and correction of soil contamination. |
| Theoretical formula |
\[PSPC_{recovered}^{t} = \frac{SPC_{recovered}^{t}}{SPC^{t}} \cdot 100\]
where: $SPC_{recovered}^{t} =$ area of potentially contaminated soils recovered for new uses from 2005 to year $t$ $SPC^{t} =$ area of potentially contaminated soils in year $t$ |
