  • Common Ground
    1 Common Ground The Papal Encyclical, Science and the Protection of Planet Earth Hans Joachim Schellnhuber Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany; Santa Fe Institute for Complex Systems Research, USA Laudato si’, the Papal Encyclical[1], is compiled at a crucial moment in the history of humanity: today. We are faced with the great challenge of limiting global warming to below 2°C while fostering development for the poorest. But we are also experiencing a special window of opportunity because the knowledge about the Earth system has never been greater. Moreover, we have the technical and economic solutions at hand to overcome the challenges we are confronted with. The urgency to act on these pressing issues that is expressed in the Encyclical mirrors the scientific findings which have accumulated into an overwhelming body of evidence. The science is clear: global warming is driven by greenhouse-gas emissions which are the result of burning fossil fuels. If we fail to strongly reduce these emissions and to bend the warming curve, we, our neighbors and children will be exposed to intolerable risks. The scientific consensus as represented by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been continuously reaffirmed by the most eminent scientific academies, including the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences which have congregated several times over the past years to address the topics of climate change and global sustainability ([2]–[5]). As any further delay to mitigation measures may jeopardize climate stability and thus our future, it is time to form alliances, find common ground and act together as humankind -- but also to take on individual responsibility and change what is in our power to change.

  • Bayesian Downscaling of Building Exposure Models with Remote Sensing and Ancillary Information

This work is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License. Bayesian downscaling of building exposure models with remote sensing and ancillary information Raquel Zafrir1,2, Massimiliano Pittore1,3, Juan Camilo Gomez- Zapata1,4, Patrick Aravena5, and Christian Geiß5 1Helmholtzcentre Potsdam GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, Potsdam, Germany ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected]) 2Hochschule für Technik Stuttgart - HFT Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany ([email protected]) 3Eurac Research, Bolzano, Italy 4University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany 5German Aerospace Center (DLR), Weßling, Germany ([email protected], [email protected]) Residential building exposure models for risk and loss estimations related to natural hazards are usually defined in terms of specific schemas describing mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive (MECE) classes of buildings. These models are derived from: (1) the analysis of census data or (2) by means of individual observations in the field. In the first case, expert elicitation has been conventionally used to classify the building inventory into particular schemas, usually aggregated over geographical administrative units whose size area and shape are country-specific. In the second case, especially for large urban areas, performing a visual inspection of every building in order to assign a class according to the specific schema used is a highly time- and resource intensive task, often simply unfeasible. Remote sensing data based on the analysis of satellite imagery has proved successful in integrating large-scale information on the built environment and as such can provide valuable vulnerability-related information, although often lacking the level of spatial and thematic resolution requested by multi-hazard applications.

  • APPENDIX .A. Note on the Present Position of the Munich Agreement of 29 September 1938
    APPENDIX .A. Note on the Present Position of the Munich Agreement of 29 September 1938 THE Munich Agreement, concluded between Germany, the United Kingdom, France and Italy for the cession of the Sudeten German territory by Czecho­ slovakia, although officially dated 29 September 1938, was in reality signed in the small hours of the morning of 30 September. l To it was annexed a declaration by the British and French Governments guaranteeing the new boundaries of the Czechoslovak state against unprovoked aggression. Germany and Italy also agreed to give a similar guarantee to Czechoslovakia 'when the question of the Polish and Hungarian minorities in Czechoslovakia had been settled'. It was further declared that the problems of these minorities in Czechoslovakia, if not settled within three months by agreement between the respective Governments, 'shall form the subject of another meeting of the Heads of the Governments of the four Powers here present'. Because of its nature, the Munich Agreement was not subject to the usual forms of ratification, and no provision for such procedure was included in its text. Parliamentary approval was accorded to Mr Chamberlain and to M. Daladier, on 6 and 5 October respectively, by means of votes of confidence but by the time these had been given in the House of Commons and the Chamber of Deputies the terms of the Munich Agreement were already a fait accompli. On 2 November 1938 the German and Italian Foreign Ministers, Ribben­ trop and Ciano, handed down the First Vienna Award, which, without consultation with, or reference to, the British and French Governments, adjudicated the fate of the Polish and Hungarian minorities in Czechoslovakia, in violation of the annexe to the Munich Agreement.2 The structure set up by the Munich Agreement was destroyed on 15 March 1939 when Hitler proclaimed that 'Czechoslovakia has ceased to exist'.

  • Zwischen Metropole Und Naturidyll – Eine Reise Durch Den Landkreis
    Oberhavel: Zwischen Metropole und Naturidyll – eine Reise durch den Landkreis Oberhavel liegt nah am Puls der Metropole Berlin, doch haben Trubel und Hektik der Großstadt hier keine Chance. Dämpfen vor ihren Toren zunächst von Wasser und Wald durchwebte Kleinstädte den Rhythmus der Hauptstadt, so verebbt er mit jedem weiteren Kilometer gen Norden endgültig im Wogen der Roggenfelder und Rauschen der Buchenhaine. Die Spannung zwischen Großstadt und Umland bestimmt den Charme unserer Region. Seit rund 100 Jahren ist im Süden des Landkreises die Industrie zu Hause. Oranienburg, Hen- nigsdorf und Velten sind Sitz renommierter Unternehmen wie Bombardier Transportation, Riva Stahl, der Wall AG, der Takeda Pharma GmbH und der Orafol GmbH. Zugleich sind es heute attraktive Wohnstädte mit Lebensqualität. Ein- und Zweifamilienhäuser, repräsentative Villen und kleine Sied- lungen prägen beliebte Wohnorte wie Hohen Neuendorf, Glienicke und Leegebruch. Vor allem junge Familien zieht es hierher, um im Grünen zu wohnen und doch alle Vorzüge Berlins genießen zu können. Denn Oberhavel liegt „direkt drüber“. Dieser Slogan be- schreibt unseren wichtigsten Standortvorteil – unsere Lage nördlich Berlins. Ob Theater, Einkaufszentrum oder Arbeitsstelle – alles ist in rund einer Stunde Fahrzeit per S-Bahn oder Auto zu erreichen. Wie der Verweis auf unsere Namenspatronin, die Obere Havel, vermuten lässt, zählt Oberhavel zu den wasserreichsten Gegenden Deutschlands. Die Havel mit ihren Kanälen und rund 100 Seen bildet ein wahres Dorado nicht nur für Wassersportler. Parallel lädt der Radfernwanderweg Berlin-Kopenhagen dazu ein, Natur und touristische Kleinode zu erkun- den. Dabei ist eine Tour durch Oberhavel stets auch eine Reise durch berlin- brandenburgische Geschichte. Historische Stadtkerne, Angerdörfer, Schlösser, Parks und Industriedenkmale zeugen davon.

  • Public Participation in the Havel River Basin (Berlin-Brandenburg)
    Public Participation in the Havel River Basin (Berlin- Brandenburg) Project Duration Jun - Dec 2003 Ecologic completed a report reviewing and evaluating practices of public participation in water management in the Havel river basin for the implementation of the EU's Water Framework Directive (WFD). Project results were presented by Nicole Kranz at the TU Berlin workshop on 'Public involvement in river basin management' on 9/10 February 2004. The project report is available for download. Background Public participation becomes more and more important in environmental decision-making. In 1998, the Convention of Aarhus formulated the right of the public to information, participation in decision- making and access to justice in environmental matters in a comprehensive way for the first time. The EC Water Framework Directive (WFD) was adopted in the spirit of this convention. Article 14 of the Directive clearly expresses that active involvement of all interested parties shall be encouraged and that the public has to be informed and consulted. The development of innovative participation models is necessary to fulfil the Directive's requirements in this context. But innovation does not necessarily entail the design of entirely new structures and methods. The point is more that the conception of participation processes should be based on a sound analysis of existing participation cultures and their respective stakeholder structures. This will be the starting point for the development of new concepts. Objectives The project's objectives include the compilation and evaluation of past and present approaches to public participation in decision-making on water management in the Havel coordination area (Berlin- Brandenburg) as a basis for the further development of future participation practices in the context of WFD implementation.
