“There will never be a quiet day for authorities and politicians”, is the unmistakable message of the Vorarlberg climate activist Marina Hagen-Canaval in the fight for climate protection. But how and why did the goddess become a leading “rebel”?
Highest heat alert level in Italy, largest evacuation in Greece’s history with over 40 degrees, wildfires raging. In Africa, high temperatures have long become a potentially lethal risk. Studies predict even more “unprecedented super and ultra-extreme heat waves” for the continent. This scenario also threatens parts of Europe, warn climate researchers.
Reinhard Steurer from Vorarlberg, professor of climate policy at BOKU Vienna, recently formulated it very drastic: “With our current course, the question is not whether a mass extinction will occur, but only when and where it will start.” What is currently happening with global warming of 1.2 degrees is just a preview of what awaits us at two or three degrees.
