Lust for the future

What we are researching today. What we already know about tomorrow. And why we can have hope.

- Future projects that make you want tomorrow and lead to a sustainable, good life
- Prof Dr Achim Kampker is co-inventor of thee-streetscooter; together with other researchers, he is working on a model city of the future
- The engineer's credo: don't be afraid of constant change, because above all it is an opportunity

Enough with the end-time prophecies!

 

"The reports about the effects of global warming are driving me crazy. We cannot delegate the mammoth task of solving this problem to politicians alone. We all have to get involved! But how can we bring sustainability and the economy together in a meaningful way? In my book, I provide answers to many of the pressing questions and describe a realisable vision for sustainable living. How a systematic combination of existing technologies and a regional masterplan can provide a pragmatic solution to many problems.

I will take you on a journey that I myself began a long time ago. There are many examples that show how technical progress can be reconciled with ecology. This is also about securing Germany as an attractive business location with a sustainable focus. We must do everything we can to harmonise ecology and economy. Environmental and climate protection are a marathon task. Let's take the plunge!"
