International experts give details on the scientific facts of global climate change, and then examine the actors and conflicts in this matter in international and national politics. They also discuss the economic aspects of climate protection and discuss the reports of the two inquiry-commissions of the German Parliament. Finally, they discuss the implementation of the Climate Convention in Germany, at the federal level in Hesse, and in three cities: Heidelberg, Münster, and Frankfurt am Main.
