Presentation [part of the standard session "Mobilität, Transformationsdesign und imperiale Lebensweise"] The climate-damaging emissions of road traffic and other social and environmental problems associated with transport point to the need to move away from individual car-mobility and towards a social-ecological transformation of mobility systems. This includes political, socio-economic and ...

Presentation [part of the standard session "Mobilität, Transformationsdesign und imperiale Lebensweise"] The basis of the presentation is the empirical work that is currently being developed in the context of the research internship at the Faculty of Political Science of the University of Vienna, led by Univ.-Prof. Dr. Ulrich Brand. It examines concrete dimensions of life, namely nutrition (...

Presentation [part of the standard session "Mobilität, Transformationsdesign und imperiale Lebensweise"] Whether the Corona crisis will promote or slow down the socio-ecological transformation is open – and thus shapeable. How can social-ecological topics be communicated in a reasonable way – and how rather not? This short impulse reflects on these questions referring to framing theories. ...

Presentation [part of the standard session "Mobilität, Transformationsdesign und imperiale Lebensweise"] Self-experiments offer an opportunity for testing sustainable practices in a limited period of time concerning their effects and their fit with the rest of life. So they are an easy entry into the urgently needed social transformation towards sustainability. Based on our experience in the...

Achieving ambitious reductions in greenhouse gases (GHG) is particularly challenging for transportation due to the technical limitations of replacing oil-based fuels. We apply the integrated assessment model MEDEAS-World to study four global transportation decarbonization strategies for 2050. The results show that a massive replacement of oil-fueled individual vehicles to electric ones alone ...

Around two-thirds of global GHG emissions are directly and indirectly linked to household consumption, with a global average of about 6 tCO2eq/cap. Changes in consumption patterns to low-carbon alternatives therefore present a great and urgently required potential for emission reductions. In this paper, we synthesize emission mitigation potentials across the consumption domains of food, hou...

In July 2019, the Stay Grounded Network met in Barcelona to discuss how to counter the massive growth in the aviation sector. A new movement for degrowing aviation and fostering climate justice was born. The results of the conference and further discussions fed into this report, outlining numerous measures to reduce air travel in a just way. (Excerpt)

Your browser does not support the video tag. Einleitung: Trotz Rekordfluten wie jüngst in Houston und extremer Dürre in vielen Teilen der Welt, von Italien bis Somalia, ist der Klimawandel im Bundestagswahlkampf kein Thema. In Deutschland steigen die Treibhausgasmissionen seit 2015 wieder, statt zu sinken, vor allem durch den boomenden Auto-, LKW- und Flugverkehr. Doch selbst bei den Debatt...

Linking Europe on two wheels “The bicycle is a chance for a way of life in which respect for others and joy of living are priorities. This offers us a great hope: Cycling as a new Humanism!” This quote from M. Augé synthesizes our approach. We started CicloPoetica in Firenze, Italy, connecting different fields: pedagogy, sport, ecology, sustainability. Our focus is Bike culture, which fo...

This paper investigates the mechanisms through which shared modes lead to degrowth strategies and help reduce major spatial and environmental issues related to mobility in urban areas, namely road congestion, rivalry of use for parking spaces and air pollution, as well as the number of goods in the economy. In this article, I use gross space consumption estimations for different transportation ...

Abstract: Das Jahr 1994 brachte mit der Bahnreform und mit der Gründung der Deutschen Bahn AG die größte Veränderung im Verkehrsbereich seit Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Kritiker sahen in der Bahnreform allerdings bereits damals die Verschleierung der Bahnprivatisierung. Und sie sagten Verhältnisse voraus, wie es sie z.B. im Sommer 2013 in Mainz und Umgebung gab. Inzwischen hat sich Ernüchteru...
