Text message chain to send instructions to hall managers*

Infrastructure

In order to enable quick communication via a second channel, the Kirchentag has set up an SMS chain in addition to the Kirchentags radio network to inform so-called hall managers with outside areas about meteorological events and necessary actions.

Plan food stands in shadowed locations

Infrastructure

In order to protect waiting customers, but also to avoid exposing food to unnecessary heat, the Kirchentag developed the measure that the stands for food vendors should be chosen so that they are in the afternoon shade (depending on opening hours), if possible in all-day shade.

Marketing campaign “Green Benches”

Heat

During the research on carpets, no environmentally friendly product could be found that met the further requirements. The Alternatividee and the climate adaptation measure „Green Benches" was born.

Data acquisition in large tents

Infrastructure

The Kirchentag is interested in making all its activities as environmentally friendly and climate-change-adapted as possible. To this end, it also collects data on a regular basis in order to be able to point out improvements and to assess the efficiency of individual measures.

Developing measures to support overloaded public transport

Infrastructure

A workshop gave rise to the idea that a major event adapted to climate change may require that local public transport must be supported in extreme weather situations, in particular to support vulnerable groups of people.

Consideration of fresh air corridors in the construction of temporary buildings

Infrastructure

The measure can be applied in two ways: With regard to the urban area, it is important that the aisles planned for the supply of fresh air, which are kept clear, do not lose their function due to large temporary buildings, thus reducing the air quality in the urban area. On the other hand, the measure can also be implemented on a small scale for the event area or in relation to the interior of the temporary building.

Position refrigerated containers/refrigerators at cooler locations

Infrastructure

If there is anything to be cooled during the event, this should be done in an already cool place if possible.

Arrangement for cooling the exhibition halls

Heat

The aim was not to cool the rooms more than necessary and thus maintain the participants'; ability to concentrate, but also to avoid the difference between inside and outside becoming a „cold shock"; and thus save energy costs.

Provide emergency accommodation

Infrastructure

In a workshop, the idea arose that emergency accommodation might be made available, in particular for vulnerable groups of people who cannot leave the event due to extreme weather events.

Development of a travel monitoring system

Flood

People from all directions travel to the Kirchentag and come as participants, speakers or employees. If there are disruptions in the journey, this can have a sensitive impact on the event.

Use webcams to monitor the weather situation

Infrastructure

A subgoal of the KlAnG project was to use existing infrastructure to adapt the Kirchentag event to climate change. So the idea was born that web-cams used for observing open-air stages and the development of the audience could also provide information about the weather situation.

Cooling of large tents through ventilation instead of air conditioning

Heat

The Kirchentag has rented tents for various uses and in various sizes. But how to cool them climate-adapted and enviromental friendly?

Reduce emissions from motorised transport

Flora and Fauna

In order to prevent high ozone concentrations in the ambient air of the event area, it is advisable to keep air pollution and thus the formation of ozone precursor substances low.

Integrate bright exhibits and external infrastructure into tenders

Heat

A wide range of materials and services are required for the event. For example, cars and trucks are rented, containers are used for storage or as office space. And machines such as cold stores and aggregates and generators support the implementation. These will be procured. In the case of publicly funded projects, larger amounts require a call for tenders.

Shadow assessment for open-air events and infrastructure

Heat

A shadow assessment involves analysing the shadow development during the course of a day at the appropriate time of year for the event in relation to the location and its use.

Implementation of the KlAnG measures in the EMAS-eco-management system

Infrastructure

When using an eco management system, climate change adaptation measures should be included and embedded in continuous processes in order to ensure continuous monitoring and further development.

Climate adaptation measures in training courses for volunteers

Infrastructure

As part of the Kirchentag, volunteers who e.g. take over the security service or the management of event locations, trained in the contents and attitudes of the Kirchentag. This is so that they are more aware of their own role and can react as sensitively as possible to participants.
