Last chance – What we can do now. Read the latest issue of diesseits!

Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time - if not the greatest. In the current issue of our humanist magazine, we therefore ask: What relationship do humanists actually have with nature? Should it change? What can we do to prevent excess in the use of our limited natural resources? And how do we move from knowledge to action?

Issue 128 of diesseits is dedicated to one of the most important topics of our time: man-made climate change.

Editor Erwin Kress writes in the editorial:

“We are experiencing the consequences of our actions: rising sea levels, massive loss of species in the animal and plant world, shrinking habitats and resources and, as a result, the risk of famines, refugee movements and new distribution struggles for land, water and food.

Every day that we do not finally take countermeasures or even continue as before, we endanger our own livelihoods – and those of future generations. And yet the decisive steps are not being taken.”

In the current issue, we therefore take a look at the obstacles to our own actions and ask ourselves how we can overcome them. What is our relationship with nature? Why do we eat animals? What humanistic positions are there on this?
