We have a mission: we must save Planet A! Because, that is also the title of our exhibition: There Is No Planet B! The Anthropocene, the age in which humans have the greatest influence on the environment, is mainly responsible for global climate extremes. The way we as humanity are "hollowing out" the globe is causing our ecosystem to falter. But there is a way out! With the help of creative strategies, conscious policies and a broad social commitment, we can fulfil our mission. Technologies that are undoubtedly the cause of the climate problem can also be part of the solution.
