Understanding the climate crisis, greenhouse gases and climate protection
How are greenhouse gases produced, what are their consequences for the climate and environment, and what options are there for adapting to climate change?
This podcast and video series explores the scientific foundations of the climate crisis and the long-term consequences of using fossil fuels. Topics such as climate protection, emissions, carbon cycles, global interconnections , and political frameworks.
The articles show the role that agriculture, society and the economy play in climate adaptation and how knowledge about causes and effects can contribute to well-founded decisions for the future.
2. Climate crisis forever?! - The atmosphere
For 150 years, Austria has been striving to give its people a better life, and as a result, it ranks among the 15 most successful countries in the world. However, it is also among the 15 countries that contribute most to the climate crisis.
3. Climate crisis forever?! - Reducing greenhouse gases
The breakdown of the greenhouse gases CO2, N2O, and CH4 takes different amounts of time because their extent also varies. CO2 is the most dramatic of these greenhouse gases. While CH4 and N2O can be broken down exponentially and more rapidly,...
4. Climate crisis forever?! - Emissions volume & radiation efficiency
All greenhouse gases have different effects. This effect can be compared to a filtering effect. While CH4 and N2O have a strong filtering effect, CO2 is filtered almost not at all. This interplay between the...
5 Climate crisis forever?! - The impact wave
The greenhouse gases described in previous episodes of the podcast series also have different effects over different durations. This is called their impact wave. CO2 becomes dominant in the following years, while...
6 Climate crisis forever?! - A simulation into the future
We need to consider how we want to shape our future and how we can best reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This part of the podcast series outlines the contributions of various greenhouse gases and the reduction pathways...
