The co-evolution of biota and the geochemical environment has resulted in a multitude of complex feedbacks in the Earth’s system. The interface between land and marine surfaces and the atmosphere is of utmost importance for the exchange of energy as well as inorganic and organic substances. Climate variability and atmospheric processes, such as transport and deposition of chemicals, are major constraints on both natural and anthropogenic biogeochemical cycles. The deposition of gases and aerosols from the atmosphere can strongly influence the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. Sometimes gases and aerosols induce productivity, sometimes they act as toxic substances. Organic compounds containing halogen atoms–especially chlorine–have been considered for a long time to be of industrial origin only, and it was assumed that the production and emission of these compounds could easily be controlled by humans in case they would pose a threat for life on Earth. Recent environmental problems such as stratospheric ozone destruction and the increasing pollution of the biosphere through semivolatile organohalogens are considered to have a large impact on the well-being of mankind.Since the mid-1970s it became clear that some reactive organohalogens identified by chemists are purposefully but also unintentionally produced by nature, eg in soils and sediments of hyper saline salt lakes. To date almost 5000 different organohalogens are known to be naturally produced by biogeochemical and biochemical processes. In addition to volatile alkyl halides and polar organohalogens such as haloacetates, there is evidence that even semi-volatile organohalogens and halogenated humic substances are naturally formed by abiotic geochemical processes. For instance nature’s production of chloromethane (5–6 Mt) exceeds the anthropogenic production (50 Kt) by a factor of 100.
