Devastating Floods in Australia, Bangladesh, Germany, New Zealand, Pakistan etc – how climate change is already causing disasters today and whether we can learn how to live with it
Guests: Dr. Irfan Mirza (Pakistan), Sohanur Rahman (Bangladesh), Maire Joy Barron (New Zealand and Australia)
The climate crisis is already a reality, many of the predictions climate scientists made in the past have already happened. As concrete examples, unprecedented floods killed thousands of people and have destroyed the lives of millions of people in several parts of the world, including in Australia, Bangladesh, Germany, New Zealand and Pakistan.
We speak with our guests from those countries about how the climate disasters have hit their areas and how those countries have been able to re-build what has been destroyed. What are the future expectations, can there be effective protection against such disasters?
How can a lifestyle which stops climate change also make communities and citizens in those areas more resilient, e.g. by using domestic and accessible renewable energy?
Our guest Irfan reports about Pakistan, Sohanur speaks about Bangladesh, and Maire about Lismore, Australia and New Zealand, and Janine tells us about Flemington, Australia, Gävle, Sweden and Stefan about the Ahr valley, Germany.
