Klimaschutz jetzt Herr Bundeskanzler”, in english: “Summer in winter?

Die lediglich mit Badehose und Bikini bekleideten sowie mit Badeutensilien ausgerüsteten Aktivisten brachten ein Transparent mit der Aufschrift 'Sommer im Winter? Klimaschutz jetzt Herr Bundeskanzler' mit.Greenpeace befürchtet, dass der heurige, durch den Klimawandel verursachte milde Winter nur ein Vorgeschmack auf eine Serie ähnlich warmer Winter in den nächsten Jahrzehnten sein wird. Der Bundeskanzler müsse beim EU-Gipfel im März für ambitionierte Klimaschutzziele eintreten sowie dafür sorgen, dass die Treibhausgas-Emissionen in Österreich deutlich abgesenkt werden.Locations:Austria-Central Europe-ViennaDate:12 Jan, 2007Credit:© Greenpeace / Teresa NovotnyMaximum size:2336px X 3504pxKeywords:Actions and protests-Banners-Climate (campaign title)-Climate change-Day-Global warming-Governments and Government organisations-Greenpeace activists-KWCI (GPI)-Men-Outdoors-Props-Small group of people-Street theatre actions-Swimming-Trees-WomenShoot:Climate Action in Bathing Suits in ViennaGreenpeace activists in bathing suits and swim wear draw attention to the fact that the current winter has been much too warm and mild and that climate change is already happening. The protest takes place opposite the Federal Chancellery in Vienna and calls on the new Chancellor and Head of State Alfred Gusenbauer to take action to protect the climate and to change Austria’s position as Europe’s tailgate in terms of climate protection. The activists hold a banner that reads: ”Sommer im Winter? Klimaschutz jetzt Herr Bundeskanzler”, in english: “Summer in winter? Protect the climate now, Mister Federal Chancellor!’ Greenpeace fears that this year's mild winter caused by climate change is only a foretaste of similar mild winters to follow and calls on the Federal Chancellor to stand up for a more ambitious climate protection in Austria at the next EU-summit.
