The German Environmental Award has honored two trailblazers: climatologist Friederike Otto and eco-builder Dagmar Fritz-Kramer, for their outstanding contributions to mitigating climate change. Otto's pivotal role in the World Weather Attribution initiative has revolutionized our understanding of climate change's impact on extreme weather events, while Fritz-Kramer's leadership in carbon-neutral housing is reshaping the construction industry's ecological footprint. Their collective efforts underscore an urgent message: action against the climate crisis cannot wait. Through science and sustainable innovation, they have laid a blueprint for a healthier planet and inspired a movement towards environmental stewardship and accountability.
