In this course, we discuss what is physically necessary to limit human-induced climate change and what options we have to achieve this. We analyze the sectoral sources of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, examine the methods for reducing emissions for each sector, including technological and demand-side options. Finally, we reflect on the psychological dimensions of climate change mitigation

The seminar brings together students in the field of atmosphere and climate. Based on classic and current scientific articles, presentation techniques (presentations, poster presentations) are practised and students get a first insight into research in the field of atmosphere and climate.
