Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg starts revolutionary climate dashboard!
Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Deutschland - On May 22, 2025, the new climateshoard for the Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg district was presented. This innovative tool is intended to communicate the district's climate goals transparently and accessible. As reports [berlin.de] (https://www.berlin.de/ba-friedrichshain-kreuzberg/aktuelles/2025/Pressemage department 1562404.php), the dashboard is a visualization of current climate data as well as the associated activities and action needs. It was developed by CityLab Berlin in cooperation with the district climatic team and is now available to the public at www.klimadashboard-xhain.de
The climateshoard answers questions about greenhouse gas emissions, climate neutrality and the consequences of climate change. With the start of the dashboard, the district's pioneering role already decided in 2024 is underpinned in relation to climate protection and climate adaptation measures. The users are given an insight into current projects, which acts the dashboard as the central interface to the district's climate slip.
transparency and participation
Clara Hermann, the district mayor, emphasizes the importance of citizen participation in the climate protection measures. The dashboard is aimed not only at the civil society interested in climate, but also to the administration of other districts, scientists and climate journalism. Benjamin Seibel, head of CityLab Berlin, expresses the desire to expand the project on all of Berlin.
The dashboard offers comprehensive insights into the energy and greenhouse gas balance of the district. The data is created according to the BISKO standard and are based on information from 2021. The final energy consumption in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg shows that heat has the largest share of consumption with 56.9 %, followed by electricity (32.3 %) and fuels (10.8 %). It should be emphasized that private households with 50.4 % are the largest energy consumers.
climate files and challenges
The analysis of greenhouse gas emissions according to sectors shows that the economy is responsible for 43 %, households for 42 % and traffic for 14 % of emissions. In 2024, an average of 4.1 tons of CO₂ equivalent per person caused by nutrition and consumption. The environmental association, consisting of public transport, cycling and foot traffic, is already making 86.5 % of the paths, while motorized private transport only makes up 13.5 %.
The climatic changes are also clearly recognizable: the middle annual temperature in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg was 10.9 ° C in the period 2011-2020, which is 1.7 ° C higher than in the 1950s. In addition, the number of hot days per year has increased from 5.5 in the 1950s to 16.5. At the same time, the intensity of heavy rain events has increased in the past 30 years.
In view of the upcoming challenges, numerous projects are underway to actively combat climate change. This is particularly important because the remaining CO₂ budget for Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg is 12.2 million tons by 2032 to limit global warming to a maximum of 1.75 ° C. The continuous recording and analysis of this data is crucial for the further planning and implementation of the climate goals.In addition to municipal responsibility, companies are obliged to disclose their strategies in the field of climate protection and climate adjustment. As notes [greenvisionsolutions.de] (https://greenvisionsolutions.de/klimaschutz-klimaan adaptation/), a comprehensive understanding of these topics for sustainability reporting and risk management is of essential importance. Companies must explain how to rate climatic risks and integrate them into their long -term business strategy.
