Book presentation and discussion:

Climate change is affecting our daily lives. This is evidenced not least by the ever-increasing number of world records. The original language seems outdated, the established narratives no longer sufficient. While the phenomena are becoming more and more visible and tangible in Germany, the stories about this present seem to be stuck in stereotypes. How do we tell stories about this changing world? How do we perceive ourselves as human beings in this world, and how can we open up possibilities, especially through stories, not to remain silent?

In her new book, network member Birgit Schneider presents shifts in perspective and unusual points of view with the aim of broadening imaginative capacities and creating a link between knowledge and action. As part of the "Netzwerk Naturwissen on Tour"series of events on 6 June, she presented her book to an interested audience and discussed it with network member Elisabeth Heyne, who also works on the relationship between humans and nature. The discussion was a call to embark on a journey into a time when old stories need to be rewritten in order to create a future worth living.
