★ No horror scenarios: A book of courage against heat, drought and flooding
★ Best practice examples from all over the world

Everyone talks about CO2, but droughts, heat and floods are also the result of heavily modified landscapes: Asphalted areas heat upmore than forests, drained moors no longer cool, and rain becomes a flash flood without absorbent soils. The solution: store water in the landscape again.

Functioning water cycles not only protect directly on the ground from the effects of climate change, they also present a solution that needs no waiting for the next climate conference to finally brings results: Local groups cannot reduce the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere, but they can reduce summer temperatures through green cities, reforestation and regenerative agriculture. A book that inspires to take action and encourages to overcome the climate crisis.
