UNESCO Global Geoparks promote identifica tion with the region, tourism and regional value creation. They address the challenges of global change in the region – always with reference to the special geological heritage in connection with the respective cultural and natural heritage.

The Geopark regions take up these issues and UNESCO Global Geopark TERRA.vita translate them, for example, into their educational work, which imparts knowledge and skills. They shed light on the heritage of the region for residents and visitors and create awareness of the broader contexts and processes. They support problem- oriented research and to that end, work with uni ver sities, non-university research institutes, muse ums and UNESCO associated schools. At the same time UNESCO Global Geoparks not only address regional issues, but also global societal International challenges, such as the finiteness of natural (above all geologi cal) resources and climate change. In model regions this regard, the UNESCO Global Geoparks are well- positioned to tackle urgent sustainability issues.

UNESCO Global Geopark TERRA.vita The 17 goals constitute an all-encompassing aspiration to eradicate poverty and hunger world- wide, make high-quality education accessible to all, promote climate protection and peace, and reduce global inequality. The 2030 Agenda is his tori­­cally unique; its ambitious goals apply to all coun tries and are intended to harmonise the eco nomic, ecological and social interests of present and future generations in the long term through specific mea sures, the success of which will be continuously monitored. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is the guiding principle for policies in Germany. The new German sustainability strategy adopted in January 2017 is just one example. The federal, state and local go v­­ernments are developing policies at all levels for the 2030 Agenda. The political parties have also embedded key elements of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in their basic programmes. Model region for sustainable development for region Model 8 9 2030 Agenda – Reference In November 2016, they formulated their strategy together with experts, the German Com mission for framework for UNESCO UNESCO and the Federal Foreign Office.

Biographical Note Possibly a group of three brothers—G. Leiber, V. Erich Leiber, and R. Leiber— participated in the German youth movement during the 1920s and 1930s. The probable maker of the photo album, Erich Leiber, was probably born before 1915 in north- western Germany, most likely in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia. His early experiences with the youth movement appear to have been in conjunction with school outings and Christian Union for Young Men (CVJM) in Austria. He also travelled to Sweden in 1928, but most of his travels are concentrated in northwestern Germany. Later in 1931 he became an active member in a conservative organization, possibly the Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft St. Georg,1 participating in outings to nationalistic locations such as the Hermann Monument in the Teutoburg Forest and to the Naval Academy at Mürwik in Kiel. In 1933 Erich Leiber joined the SA and became a youth leader or liaison for a Hitler Youth unit while still maintaining a connection to a group called Team Yorck, a probable extension of prior youth movement associates. After 1935 Erich’s travels seem reduced to a small group of male friends, ending with an Easter trip along the Rhine River in 1938.

  • The Weather in Germany in Spring 2021
    Press Release The weather in Germany – Spring 2021 Coldest spring since 2013 – but average sunshine Offenbach, 31 May 2021 – Spring 2021 was much too cool. Thus, the series of excessively warm springs in Germany, which had started in 2013, came to an end. The cool north winds in April and the inflow of fresh maritime air in May, in particular, kept average temperatures low. Summery weather only made a brief appearance. Whereas the amount of precipitation was less than the long-term average, the sunshine duration was slightly higher than normal. This is the summary announced by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) after an initial analysis of the observations from its approximately 2,000 measuring stations. A mild March was followed by a very cool April and May At 7.2 degrees Celsius (°C), the average temperature in spring 2021 was 0.5 degrees lower than the international reference value 1961–1990. Compared to the current 1991–2020 reference period, the deviation was -1.7 degrees. The factors that determined the negative deviation were the coldest April for 40 years and the cool May. Before this, March had brought fluctuating temperatures. Germany only enjoyed a brief high summer intermezzo for Mother's Day on 9 May. During this time, Waghäusel-Kirrlach, to the south-west of Heidelberg, registered the first hot day of 2021 (> 30 °C) with a temperature of 31.3 °C, which was also the hottest spring temperature nationwide. The lowest temperature was recorded on 6 April at Messstetten on the Swabian Alb (-13.6 °C). Little precipitation in the north-east in contrast to plenty of precipitation in the south per square metre (l/m²): at around 175 l/m2, it was only 93 per cent of the long-term average.

Large parts of Central Europe have experienced exhumation in Late Cretaceous to Paleogene time. Previous 10 studies mainly focused on thrusted basement uplifts to unravel magnitude, processes and timing of exhumation. This study provides, for the first time, a comprehensive thermochronological dataset from mostly Permo-Triassic strata exposed adjacent to and between the basement uplifts in central Germany, comprising an area of at least some 250-300 km across. Results of apatite fission track and (U-Th)/He analyses on >100 new samples reveal that (i) km-scale exhumation affected the entire region, (ii) thrusting of basement blocks like the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest focused in the Late 15 Cretaceous (about 90-70 Ma) while superimposed domal uplift of central Germany is slightly younger (about 75-55 Ma), and (iii) large parts of the domal uplift experienced removal of 3 to 4 km of Mesozoic strata. Using spatial extent, magnitude and timing as constraints suggests that thrusting and crustal thickening alone can account for no more than half of the domal uplift.

  • The Archaeology of Time Travel Represents a Particularly Significant Way to Bring Experiencing the Past the Past Back to Life in the Present
    This volume explores the relevance of time travel as a characteristic contemporary way to approach (Eds) & Holtorf Petersson the past. If reality is defined as the sum of human experiences and social practices, all reality is partly virtual, and all experienced and practised time travel is real. In that sense, time travel experiences are not necessarily purely imaginary. Time travel experiences and associated social practices have become ubiquitous and popular, increasingly replacing more knowledge-orientated and critical The Archaeology approaches to the past.
