Climate Change Impact Austria - Torrent damage

Due to climate change, weather extremes are getting more common in Austria. Weather events like heavy rainfalls, hail and heavy storms can be seen more frequently. In addition to that soil, sealing is an increasing problem. Concrete areas are unable to take up water. The danger of rockslide, mudflows and floods increases. In summer 2019 the area of Tennengau was facing heavy rainfalls. Streets have been destroyed, bridges have been torn apart and the village has been isolated from the outside world.
