In March 2019 the initiative issued a statement titled Statement of scientists and scholars concerning the protests for more climate protection.[4][5][6][7][8] The statement was signed by over 26000 German-language scientists and scholars.[9][10][11]
Facts
The scientists list 24 established scientific facts on climate change, verifiable by reference to the scientific literature.[12] These include facts on:
- The mean temperature rise,[13][14][15][16] and global temperatures in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.[17]
- Statement of fact that the cause of temperature rise is almost entirely caused by human factors,[18][13][14]
- Descriptions of the effects of global warming, including a rise in the probability of extreme weather conditions,[19][13][15][20] and the effects of global warming on human health.[21][22]
