story VS: Dress Warm, It's Going to Be Hot

Description

We feel how the weather phenomena are becoming increasingly extreme, causing human suffering and costs to grow – whether through heat, droughts with dry spells and forest fires, or floods. The melting of Arctic ice, retreat of many glaciers, and extremely high sea temperatures are also increasingly in our focus. Today, we are simply experiencing the things that science predicted about 40 years ago. It is clear: we have a problem not just of knowledge, but of action!
In his live lecture, the renowned ARD weather expert Sven Plöger invites you to a precise assessment: Where do we really stand on the issue of global warming? Because the time to sugarcoat the world or shrug and say it's all too late is over. Both lead us – and especially future generations – astray. Instead, what is needed is a realistic, well-founded optimism: the attitude with which we can actively shape climate change. Therefore, the second part of the lecture consciously focuses on concrete opportunities and chances we can now utilize.
Diplom meteorologist Sven Plöger is not a missionary or ideologue with an raised finger, but tries to translate the complex natural scientific processes into language understandable for everyone. Despite the seriousness of the topic, he repeatedly allows himself a refreshing touch of humor, making the lecture light and accessible.
