The Ocean

A Plastic Ocean

Because the oceans are the largest ecosystems on Earth, they are the Earth’s largest life support systems. To survive and prosper, we all need healthy oceans. I highly recommend watching the documentary A Plastic Ocean. Awareness creates caring, caring leads to change.

Why the Ocean is important to Everyone (2021)

Professor Stefan Rahmstorf (Professor of Physics of the Oceans) explains in 24 minutes "why the ocean is important to Everyone".

What is Climate Change exactly?

The newspapers write more and more about global warming, extreme weather events, flooding, the gulf stream, and CO2 emissions. But how does it all fit together? What does global warming actually mean? You do not need to be a physicist to understand the context and linkages. The following two lectures (each of 30 minutes) give an excellent overview. The first lecture covers the basic facts about global warming. The second lecture discusses the impacts of climate change. Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf already recorded these lectures in 2009! The projections turned out to be correct, and the content is still up to date.
