| Luxemburger Wort, May 22, 2019. |
Susanne Siebentritt had the idea first. Luxembourg students were preparing to march for climate change, and she thought it was time that scientists say something in support. Hard to argue against the necessity of such a message, a cross-faculty group of authors quickly solidified to knock their heads together and write up a statement for the press. These included Rachel Reckinger (Identités. Politiques, Sociétés, Espaces), Ariane König (Education, Culture, Cognition & Society), Susanne Siebentritt (Physics and Materials Science Research Unit) Norman Teferle (Research Unit in Engineering Sciences (RUES), and Constance Carr and Christian Schulz (from the Institute of Geography and Spatial Planning).
Moreover, 180+ researchers from the University signed the statement, and various translation s were made thanks to additional help from Pol Breser, Nathalie Entringer, Peter Gilles, Laurence Colin.
These translations and the list of 180 signatories are available at sustainabilityscience.uni.lu
On May 22, 2019, the Luxemburger Wort agreed to publish it as a Letter to the Editor. An English version is available here; the Luxembourgish version is available here, and a French version is available here.
On the same day of publication, 100,7 requested an interview. Carr and König were able to respond. Here is the link to the Luxembourgish transcript. Or, just click here to go directly to the sound file (German).
