Climate expert Helga Kromp-Kolb appears on Puls4

Prof. Helga Kromp-Kolb in a Skype chat on Café Puls on the topic of "Climate change: is it already too late?"


Prof. Helga Kromp-Kolb was a guest on Café Puls, the breakfast television programme on Puls4, on 14 August. During the conversation, she addresses a number of questions, including:

  • Is the comparatively lower heat burden of this summer's weather linked to the lockdown during the coronavirus crisis?
  • The Paris Climate Agreement calls for limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C — what would be so bad about a temperature rise of 1.6°C?
  • Is it actually realistic to achieve ambitious climate targets within a comparatively short timeframe?
