Das Eis schmilzt

Well-known and experienced sailor Arved Fuchs has witnessed the disastrous developments of climate change first hand. He pointed out the urgency decades ago but politics and society have ignored and trivialized the problem for far too long. In dialogue with energy experts, scientists and local people, best practice examples, perspectives and ideas of individual communities are presented to counteract the powerlessness. The motto of the book remains posivie: "We have a problem, but we can solve it.“ Emotionally, socio-politically, critically differentiated: Fuchs stands for 40 years of Arctic experience and due to its ICE camps and the current "Ocean Change" campaign, also in exchange with the younger generation. In autumn 2019 Fuchs received the "Seadevcon Maritime Award". The prize honours an annual personality, whose "life's work is exemplary for the struggle for a sustainable and respectful use of the oceans". In the context of various lectures and discussions Fuchs will continue to actively accompany the book.
