Patriarchat zerschlagen - Emissionen reduzieren? Gender, Vielfalt und Klimakrise
180
The fight against the climate crisis is young, diverse and mostly female. Yet, this fight is facing fierce 
resistance through patriarchal structures in economic and political establishments. How can we empower 
people of all genders, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, social classes and backgrounds to stand up against 
these structures? Do we need a matriarchy? How do we bring about change to reduce emissions?

Momentum für den Klimaschutz
English 60
The momentum to make climate action happen is as big as never before. Knowledge and awareness about the palpable climate crisis are strong, solutions exist aplenty, yet satisfying policy actions are lacking and frustration and anger are growing. What are the positive social tipping points societies need? What are prime examples of action that pave the way towards more impact?
 
Session objective: Creating a community of action – Connect with like-minded individuals, build interest groups and promote long-term action by planning next steps and follow-ups with other participants. 

//INFO: Because of bad weather, the session is going to take place in the second floor OG1 of the Volksschule Alpbach.

Dekarbonisierungstechnologien für eine klimaneutrale Zukunft: Wie man es schaffen kann
English 180
Both Europe (by 2050) and Austria (by 2040) have the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and becoming climate neutral. To achieve this, the major industrial emitters must do their homework. We want to find answers to the following questions: How can European industry, with its investments in research and technologies, achieve the Net Zero goal? How do the rising prices for CO2 certificates affect the ability to invest in research and development? How can the mammoth task of decarbonization succeed?

//INFO: Hike to Gasthof Rossmoos. Bring hiking shoes and water. In case of heavy rain, there is going to be a 
shuttle to Gasthof Rossmoos.
