Warum sind Honigbiene und Mensch so eng verbunden? Robert Brodschneider erklärt's

Robert Brodschneider ist Zoologe an der Universität Graz. Er beschäftigt sich intensiv mit dem Themenfeld Honigbiene und Gesellschaft, also der Interaktion von betreuten Bienenvölkern und Menschen. Seit 2008 untersucht der Forscher und Imker jährlich die Winterverluste von Bienenvölkern in Österreich. Zuletzt erschien eine Studie, die den ökonomischen Schaden der Winterverluste für die heimischen ImkerInnen mit 32 Millionen Euro bezifferte.
Fritz Treiber vom Geschmacklabor der Universität Graz spricht mit Robert Brodschneider über das Bienensterben und mögliche Gegenstrategien. Ist Stadthonig frei von Pestiziden? Wie erkennen wir Honigfälschungen aus China? Warum ist der Manukahonig nicht besser als österreichischer Waldhonig? Und wie kam Broschneider überhaupt dazu Bienenforscher zu werden?

Podcast


Warum sind Mensch und Honigbiene heute so eng verbunden, wie sie es noch nie zuvor in der Evolutionsgeschichte waren? Brodschneider erläutert in einem Video, warum wir die Forschung über die Honigbiene heute dringend brauchen.

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.
