student:" We mustn't think that we can't do anything because we're a little country. A lot of people think that just people in the USA can change something."

our comment: the organisation in a little country is much easier than in big countries. So in Switzerland it should be easier getting people to react.

teacher: " i think it's a very serious problem. And i try to do as much as I can to reduce CO2 emissions ( I don't own a car). But because I have friends in the US I want to see them and so I have to fly there. The consequences are that I'm worried about the future of the Alps."

our comment: To have no car it's a good advancement.

c) - There is a lot written about victims and the impact of climate change in the newspapers but more could be written directly about climate change and solutions for climate change.

d) Now it`s also raining in desert town!! It was impressiv for us because it`s very special when it rains in desert town. And nevertheless we don`t realize how dreadful it really is. And what we have to do against.

d) One day we will go under in our own dirt!

a.) anger: I think of all the people who cut down the rainforest, throwing exhaust fumes into the air and wasting energy.

Responsibility: Everyone has responsibility to do something about climate change. This concerns everybody.

Hope: As long as there is a group of people, even if it still so small, there is hope of changing the climate and contributing ro a better enviroment.

Indifference: Many people are indifferent with regard to this issue because they are not affected. However, they do not think of their children who have to suffer from their parents' mstakes.

b.) Our strongest feeling is anger, because we have to see how other people are recklessly destroying the earth, and we lern a lot from the climate change and how we can fight against it, while we are trying with our project to help preserve the earth in front of a climate catastrophe.

No there is not really a program that teaches young people about climate change. But there are organizations in which you can do something for nature and so also for the environment. In school, it is a current topic of conversation.

I would introduce car-free Sundays, in which public transport, ambulances, police cars and fire engines are alowed to circulate. This project already existed a long time ago, it was unfortunately abandoned. Or who consumes too much electricity / waste shall pay a fine for exceeding a limit.
