Hi ,
We are all aware that climate change is an enormous challenge that humanity can only overcome through international cooperation and solidarity. Supporting and accompanying this process through research is and remains IKEM's mission. However, our work also generates greenhouse gas emissions - we have calculated a footprint of 46.13 tonnes of CO2 equivalent for the year 2023.
Even if this is a comparatively low figure, the realisation remains that climate protection affects us all and is a challenge on both a large and small scale. Among other things, we are tackling this challenge with a four-week climate campaign, which we report on in this issue of the newsletter.
As always, you can also find out more about the results of our research: IKEM recently contributed to a publication on the energy transition in urban districts and we have been involved in events on the interplay between mobility and retail and the role of public transport in the energy transition. A whole series of events are also planned for the coming weeks - from workshops on citizen participation to the next edition of the Forum Wärmewende and the Climate Democracy Day.
Until next time,
The IKEM Communications Team
