Der Vortrag von Dr. Made (Dr. Mark Benecke) gehört zu den deprimierendsten Dingen, die ich im EU-Parlament erlebt habe. Und ich habe EINIGE deprimierende Dinge erlebt: Digitalkommissar Günther Oettinger, die Europa-SPD, Frau von der Leyens Betonfrisur ...
Klimawandel, Massensterben der Tier- und Pflanzenwelt, Fleisch, Bio und warum wir nur noch zwei bis drei Jahre Zeit haben.
REALLY?
​
Yes. The promises and deals to limit global warming to +1,5 °C are not doable anymore. This is over. Politicians or economics still telling you about it, are lying.
As our carbon dioxide emissions are not reduced enough at the moment, we need to expect a global warming of +4 °C.

​
SAVE THE BEES?
THE HONEY BEES?
Yes, we are since years facing an animal mass extinction which is linked also to global warming and the us of fertilizers, such as neonicotinoids, glyphosat, etc..
Oh yes, the honey bee is important for the economy, so they are pushing this topic quite strong. Did you knew that we have in Germany around 560 kinds of wild bees!
And did you knew that the pollination of plants worldwide is done by:
1/3rd wesps
1/3rd flies
1/3rd bees (all kinds of bees and less for the honey bee)
​
Every little, medium and big animal like ants for example, is perfectly adapted to it´s habitat, 100%. They are adapted to each others lifes in complex systems, taking care of fundamental processes of daily life on earth, things we don´t know and don´t see.
​
Our biodiversity is dying in fron of our eyes.
Once it´s gone, it won´t return.

"UNSERE WELT NEU DENKEN: Eine Einladung"
>>Unsere Welt steht an einem Kipp-Punkt, und wir spüren es. Einerseits geht es uns so gut wie nie, andererseits zeigen sich Verwerfungen, Zerstörung und Krise, wohin wir sehen. Ob Umwelt oder Gesellschaft – scheinbar gleichzeitig sind unsere Systeme unter Stress geraten. Wir ahnen: So wie es ist, wird und kann es nicht bleiben. Wie finden wir zu einer Lebensweise, die das Wohlergehen des Planeten mit dem der Menschheit versöhnt? Wo liegt der Weg zwischen Verbotsregime und Schuldfragen auf der einen und Wachstumswahn und Technikversprechen auf der anderen Seite? Diese Zukunft neu und ganz anders in den Blick zu nehmen – darin besteht die Einladung, die Maja Göpel ausspricht.<<
