Climate change is probably the greatest threat humanity has ever faced. Germany, with its stable economy and favorable geography, appears well-positioned to meet climate goals. However, the reality is far more complex and challenging.‘Fragments of Climate Change’ is a kaleidoscopical examination of how we deal with the climate catastrophe from multiple perspectives. Each of his photographs offers us insight into a fragment of a larger story that depicts the social and environmental landscape in contemporary Germany.
