AUSGEBUCHT: Heiße Städte, Coole Bäume - Was tun Bäume für unser Stadtklima? (5-9. Klasse)
Lecture
Friedrichsplatz, Erbprinzenstraße, 76133 Karlsruhe

Die Sonne brennt, der Asphalt glüht – und unter dem Baum ist es plötzlich angenehm kühl. In dieser Führung inklusive Live-Demo lernst du, wie wichtig Stadtbäume für unser Klima sind. Du entdeckst, wie Forschende des KIT die Gesundheit von Bäumen mit Sensoren messen, wie Bäume mit Hitze umgehen und was wir für sie tun können. Erfahre, warum Stadtbäume zur „blau-grünen Infrastruktur“ gehören – und was das für die Stadt der Zukunft bedeutet.
 
Die Veranstaltung ist bereits ausgebucht. Weitere Angebote für Schulklassen unter www.scienceweek.kit.edu
 
Die Location ist nicht barrierefrei.
 
Inhalte und Themen: Stadtklima, Bäume, Sommer, Klimawandel

AUSGEBUCHT: RoofKIT: Wie bauen wir in Zukunft? (Klasse 1-12)
Führung
KIT Campus Süd, RoofKIT (Geb. 30.79),
Kreuzung Richard-Willstätter-Allee/Adenauerring

How can we build more sustainably? And what does sustainable building actually mean? During the guided tour of the RoofKIT building, you will discover how new living spaces are created using recycled and renewable materials. You will learn how the KIT team won the international “Solar Decathlon Europe” competition and what sustainable architecture has to do with the climate, energy and our coexistence. Come along and experience what building in the city of the future can really look like!
 
The location is not barrier-free.
 
Contents and topics: Architecture, materials, climate change, resources

Urban nature of the future: exploring change in the mobile participation lab - MobiLab station at Friedrichsplatz
Workshop
MobiLab am Friedrichsplatz, Friedrichsplatz, Erbprinzenstraße, 76133 Karlsruhe

What will the green city of the future look like? At the MobiLab on Friedrichsplatz, you can playfully explore what plants, animals and ecosystems contribute to city life. You will compete against a robot to find insects, explore the city from an animal perspective and redesign the city's squares with us. There will also be information, advice, a climate quiz - and plenty of opportunity to have your say, try things out and rethink.
 
 
Contents and topics: Urban development, nature in the city, sustainability, the future
 
An Event by: KIT – Institute for Technology Assessment and Systems Analysis and Karlsruhe Transformation Center
