报告内容：Climate change will lead us to expect more frequent and severe natural disasters in the future. The flood disaster in western Germany in July 2021 claimed 180 lives and destroyed many buildings and infrastructure. This was the most severe damage caused by an extreme natural event in Germany since 1962. Above all, the disaster showed how vulnerable even a relatively prosperous and infrastructurally highly developed country can be. The lecture will briefly outline the course of the disaster and then discuss how it was possible for essential parts of the disaster management and many political decision-makers to fail and what lessons can be learned from the event.
