📋 Tender Overview
Land Unter in Baden-Wurttemberg: The climatic review of the State Institute for the Environment shows how strong the consequences of climate change in the country are already noticeable. Land Unter in Baden-Wurttemberg: Violent heavy rain events and extraordinary floods shaped the year 2024, during the upward trend of temperatures. The one who once again shows the consequences of climate change. Climate protection remains the central task The consequences of showing themselves and we all feel them firsthand. It has to do this for many. It must first and foremost be an incentive to act. We must not let up in our efforts to protect the climate.
And we have to stand up to the best possible way in order to prepare ourselves against the already visible consequences of climate change. To use it, explains the Environment Minister. Weather extreme with devastating consequences Dr. Ulrich Maurer, President of Lubw, summarizes the weather extreme treme in 2024: Last year, intensive permanent and in parts of the country ensured a violent flood. At the same time, a high annual temperature was recorded. There were serious floods that led to death and enormous damage. The ecosystems also suffered from the extreme weather conditions. Maurer adds: It is important to prepare our cities and municipalities in a targeted manner for the challenges of climate change.
The LUBW supports the municipalities in this task with their. State of emergency in May and June Haves at the end of May/early June 2024 led to extraordinary floods, especially in eastern Neckar inflows as well as in the Lake Constance and Danube inflows in the Oberschwaben area. Around 60 percent of the state levels registered increased water levels. At 18 measuring points, 100-year flood drains were even reached, i.e. drainage that statistically only occur every 100 years or less often. The floods resulted in two deaths in the Rems-Murr district and damage in the millions. On Lake Constance, too, the level rose to the level of a 10-year flood and flooded bank areas. Overall, 2024 was nine percent wetter with 1069 millimeters of precipitation than the long -term average. May was 90 percent above the month of the reference period 1961 - 1990 and thus recorded a new record as a moistest month since the start of the weather records. High temperatures, formerly summer, late frosts with a year mean temperature of 10.6 degrees Celsius was the third heat in Baden-Wurttemberg in 2024 since the beginning of the measurement 1881. The year 2024 was just behind the temperature records of the previous two years. Every month over the monthly values of the reference period 1961- 1990. In particular, February was noticed: it was 6.1 deg C warmer than the February average of the reference period and thus the warmest February since the beginning of the records in 1881.
Summer days were registered unusually early in the year, at the same time frosts occurred until April. Weather extremes put agriculture and ecosystems under pressure The vegetation period achieved a new record length in 2024 and exceeded the previous maximum value of 2020 by six days. The apple blossom was particularly striking, which used 26 days earlier than on the long -term average. This had consequences for agriculture: at the end of April, cold collapse caused late frost damage and thus locally to considerable crop failures in fruit and viticulture. In 2024, the second negative record year in a row was in a row. The heavy rains in May and June met many species in their development phases - eggs, caterpillars and dolls were exposed to continuing moisture, which led to drastic burglaries. Climatic review of the year that observes and analyzes the weather data and environmental indicators in the country. This summarizes current insights into temperature development, precipitation patterns, water levels and air quality. It serves as a basis to recognize trends and plan preventive measures. The persistent warming, changed precipitation distribution and previous vegetation phases underline the influence of climate change on Baden-Wurttemberg and the need for effective adaptation measures. Adaptation to climate change The state government has continued in 2023. The strategy summarizes climatic changes and the effects of heat, dryness and low water, heavy rain and flood as well as change in habitats and species in Baden-Wurttemberg. In around 100 measures, the formuliA monitoring report for the implementation of the strategy is presented before the summer break.
