What climate change means for Carinthia – Gerhard Hohenwarter on weather, winter and change
How is climate change affecting our mountains, our winters and our everyday lives? In this episode of HOCHinteressant, host Karin Leeb talks to Carinthian meteorologist, mountain hiking guide and nature observer Gerhard Hohenwarter about weather, climate and the future of alpine regions.
Why are the mountains increasingly becoming places of refuge during hot summers? How is snow reliability changing on Turracher Höhe? What role do mobility, tourism and our personal lifestyles play in tackling climate change? And why could regions at more than 1,700 metres above sea level become even more attractive in the future? Gerhard Hohenwarter combines scientific expertise with decades of experience in the Carinthian mountains. Their conversation explores shrinking glaciers, changing seasons, sustainable travel and Carinthia’s unique natural and cultural landscape.
An insightful episode about weather, change and the question of how we can preserve the beauty of our mountain world for future generations – and the role places such as Hotel Hochschober can play in this.
