Aus Liebe zum Menschen

Morgen findet die Blutspende-Aktion des Roten Kreuzes in der Aula statt

Jährlich werden in der Steiermark rund 60.000 Blutkonserven benötigt. Diesen Bedarf zu decken, ist nicht immer einfach. Erst in diesem Jänner war es zu einem Engpass gekommen: Die Grippewelle hatte auch viele potenzielle SpenderInnen erfasst.

Das Österreichische Rote Kreuz möchte daher Menschen durch Spendeaktionen an unterschiedlichen Orten motivieren, ihr Blut zu geben, damit andere leben können. "Man kann auch selbst in die Lage kommen, eine Blutkonserve oder ein Produkt daraus zu benötigen. Blut kann nicht künstlich hergestellt werden, daher sind wir auf die Solidarität unserer Mitmenschen angewiesen", wurde Landesgeschäftsführer Andreas Jaklitsch diesen Jänner zitiert.

Bereits seit einigen Jahren können MitarbeiterInnen und Studierende der Uni Graz praktisch direkt am Arbeitsplatz ein Mal im Jahr Blut spenden -  und dadurch Leben retten. Heuer wird dies am 14. März 2017 möglich sein. Das österreichische Rote Kreuz ist ab 10 Uhr in der Aula und betreut Freiwillige, die ihr Blut dem guten Zweck zur Verfügung stellen möchten. Bei jeder Spende wird zur Identifikation ein amtlicher Lichtbildausweis benötigt.

SpenderInnen hätten laut Jaklitsch neben dem Wissen, Menschen zu helfen, auch einen gesundheitlichen Vorteil: Naturgemäß wird jede Blutprobe untersucht. Bei groben Abweichungen von Normalwerten werde der/die SpenderIn verständigt.

Staying fit during the holidays: summer sports on the University of Graz campus

The Kleeblattlauf is not the end of the fitness term. Following last year’s successful launch, the University of Graz is once again offering summer sports on campus this year. From 30 June to 16 July 2026, there will be a free exercise programme in the open air. On the shady Südwiese (between the main building and Universitätsplatz 2), anyone interested can get in shape in the afternoons with body workouts, fascia training and yoga.

Getting even hotter: Researchers predict global warming of 1.7 degrees by 2027

While Europe is currently sweltering in the heat, global temperatures are also rising towards concerning record levels. In 2026, Earth’s surface air temperature is expected to reach 1.62 degrees, and in 2027 even 1.71 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The long-term temperature rise – an average over a 20-year period – is predicted to exceed the 1.5-degree threshold of the Paris Agreement as of 2026 already. For the first time, researchers at the University of Graz have been able to make such a forecast so far in advance. The intensifying El Niño climate event favors forecast skill and thereby facilitates a reliable computation.
