At the 2021 mtu Virtual Marine Summit, we took a deep dive to explore future of the marine ecosystem. Our expert guests from leading maritime companies and numerous participants asked penetrating questions and searched for sustainable answers. Now you can explore the videos below and Dive into a World of Solutions.
Topics such as climate change and technology, power-to-X, hydrogen and green harbors, hybrid propulsion, data management and autonomous shipping were presented. In this collection of videos you will find inspiration to tackle the big challenges ahead.
Introduction & Welcome

Ecosystems and Societies Under Climate Change
Prof. Dr. Hans-Otto Pörtner | Alfred-Wegener-Institute
Prof. Dr. Hans-Otto Pörtner addresses the emergence of the climate crisis from the perspective of the recent Special Reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. He provides an overview of the impacts of climate change and its future risks for land, ocean and cryosphere. He shows ways in which these mostly very disadvantageous changes can still be limited. The video is focusing on the advantages of the ambitious side of the Paris 2015 climate agreement, but also on how little time is left to achieve this target.
