Eine Umweltkatastrophe seien die Lecks der Nord-Stream-Pipelines, sagt das EU-Parlament. Doch der Schweizer Klimatologe Reto Knutti findet, dass die Lecks für den globalen Klimawandel nur kleine Auswirkungen haben.
«Treibhausgase sind langlebig. Sie benötigen 10 bis 100 Jahre, bis sie abgebaut sind. Die Durchmischzeit in der Atmosphäre geschieht jedoch innert Wochen, womit es sich schnell über die ganze Welt verteilt.»

Outline drawing of some possibilities
«Time is like the wind, it lifts the light and leaves the heavy»
Wind - an important renewable energy source for people and the environment. Since time immemorial, people have tried to harness the wind, be it to start a machine, to boost agriculture or to produce electricity.

Heating today vs hundred years ago
Fire and fires have existed almost since the beginning of the earth. Lightning and volcanic activity can cause forest fires at any time. Therefore, our forefathers must have known fire as a destroying force of nature. But it was only much later that they began to control fire and use it for their own purposes. Which people they were - for that we must go back to the Stone Age.More...
New but old energy
What does that mean? Well, the energy is old, but it is renewed. This is how renewable energy is created. How does it work and how revolutionary is it? More...
A radiated affair (Eine strahlende Angelegenheit)
[Have you ever heard of nuclear energy, radiation, or radioactivity? Of course, you have and if not, then this project will enlighten your mind. I will tell you who Marie Curie was and what she achieved in her life. Moreover, I will show you how nuclear energy is used today, and we are going to have a look of the nuclear accident in Chernobyl. I will also briefly look at the atomic bombs. I will show you how you can calculate nuclear decay with the half-life-method, and I explain what the C14-method is. Finally, let yourself be surprised, what I have come up with for future nuclear energy.]
Short summary
[I chose this project because nuclear energy interests me and I had a lot of different thoughts when I think about it.
The path from the discovery of radioactivity to the present day has been a long one and has involved several catastrophes that have claimed many lives. I find it extremely interesting how people are trying to use nuclear energy for something good, even though the danger of nuclear war is very present at all times.] More...
Tap Water Caluclation:
Per Week I:
- drink 3L tap water per day = 21L per week
- i shower at least every second day (per minute showering we use 12-15L per minute, i shower 10-15minutes) = 3 times a week = 3x 225L = 675L per week
- i wash my face and hands everyday many times = per week ca. 20L
- i go to toilet ca. 5 times per day = 1 flush is 9-14L = 490L per week
That‘s a total of 1‘206L tap water per week for only one person. And that without even looking at all the products etc. that we use everyday that have water in them or were produced with water. For example only an avocado has 3‘000L in it.
Screenshot of the quiz (score) is in my onenote.
