The protection of the climate is one of the main priorities during Swedens EU-presidency. On the high altitude research station at 3’454 above sea level, the participants had an insight into some leading scientific work under extreme high alpine conditions. Director Erwin Flückiger presented – amongst others – a Belgian project. Mister Thomas F. Stocker – leading climate-scientist – also gave a very interesting presentation.
Ambassador Per Thöresson hopes, that the visit will help to gain consciousness for the problems of the climate change.
