When Our Waters Change: A Look Underwater
How do drought, heat, heavy rain, and flooding affect fish, shellfish, and crustaceans? The lecture Climate Change and Biodiversity Crisis: A Look Underwater invites you on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, to the Blue House in Dießen am Ammersee. Dr. Bernhard Gum, head of the fisheries consultancy of the Upper Bavaria district, will provide understandable insights into the current changes in our waters.
Waters Under Pressure
The event will focus on the consequences of climate change for aquatic habitats. Longer dry periods, rising temperatures, as well as heavy rainfall and flooding change the conditions in lakes and rivers. Concrete examples will be highlighted, along with the question of how these developments affect biodiversity.
From Invasive Species to Microplastics
Dr. Bernhard Gum will show what role invasive species and pollutant inputs like PFAS and microplastics play. The lecture is aimed at interested laypersons and combines professional expertise with an understandable classification of the challenges for water protection and biodiversity.
Hope Through Renaturation and Species Protection
In addition to the stressors, solutions will also be in focus. Renaturation and species protection projects demonstrate how habitats can stabilize and promote ecological diversity. The event experience combines information, environmental education, and regional perspectives on the protection of our waters.
An Evening for Everyone Who Wants to Look Closer
The organization by the Ammersee West Adult Education Center in cooperation with the Dießen Home Club creates a professionally sound framework for the target group of interested citizens. The audience atmosphere thrives on the proximity to the topic: Lake Ammersee and its waters are right on the doorstep, while the event makes global developments tangible.
The conclusion: Attendees can expect an informative lecture with current examples, understandable connections, and impulses for water protection. Those who want to better understand the quiet changes beneath the water's surface will experience an important evening for climate, biodiversity, and regional environmental responsibility at the Blue House.
