Klimaforscher Gottfried Kirchengast über den Wandel der Welt

Der Mensch beeinflusst massiv den fortschreitenden Klimawandel. Der Schutz der Umwelt und das Drosseln der globalen Erwärmung sind dringend geboten. Was aber sind die Bedingungen, unter denen die Welt den Übergang zu einer nahezu CO2-emissionsfreien Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft schaffen kann? Welche Herausforderungen und Chancen bringt diese Veränderung? Und was kann jedeR Einzelne in Wirtschaft, Gesellschaft und Politik dafür tun? Diese und weitere hochaktuelle Fragen wird der renommierte Klimaforscher Univ.-Prof. Dr. Gottfried Kirchengast, Leiter des Wegener Center für Klima und Globalen Wandel an der Uni Graz, in seinem spannenden Vortrag beantworten.

Setback: Austria's greenhouse gas emissions rise in 2025

Climate protection is currently facing an uphill battle. The United Nations have recently been unable to agree on a roadmap for phasing out fossil fuels, even though global warming continues to accelerate. Also Austria still does not have a national climate law with a clear target path for reducing emissions. This is evidently taking its toll: Austria’s greenhouse gas emissions rose again in 2025 for the first time in years, by around two and a half percent, according to calculations by researchers at the University of Graz. In addition to overly cautious climate action measures, this is due to somewhat colder winter months compared to 2024, which are driving up natural gas consumption.
