15. Umwelt im Gespräch: Unsere Meere – Grenzen der Balance

Lange galten die Ozeane als nahezu unerschöpflich. Heute zeigen Klimawandel, Versauerung, Tiefseebergbau und der Verlust mariner Biodiversität, dass auch die Belastbarkeit der Meere Grenzen hat. Wie lassen sich Schutz, Nutzung und wirtschaftliche Interessen miteinander vereinbaren? Darüber diskutierten Expert*innen aus Wissenschaft und Praxis bei der 15. Ausgabe von „Umwelt im Gespräch“ des Forschungsverbunds Umwelt und Klima (ECH) der Universität Wien im Naturhistorischen Museum Wien.
