What is the GES?

The GES Process The GES is a solution forum attracting world leaders to generate solutions for the most important global problems.

It presents a neutral, creative space in which we can think afresh about tackling global problems across national, cultural, social and religious divides.

Hallmarks are that it is research-based and solution-oriented.

The GES 2013 takes place from October 1st to 2nd in Kiel, Germany!

See how GES solutions can be implemented: Converting Renewable Energies into Gas

Converting Renewable Energies into Gas

The Audi e-gas project represents the company's first step towards producing sustainable fuels. The company is currently building the world's first industrial-scale plant to convert CO₂ and renewable electricity into a synthetic natural gas that can be fed into the natural gas network. This power-to-gas technology opens up new possibilities for sustainable mobility and the energy economy of the future.

GES Blog: Floods in Europe – Is the „New Economy of Nature“ a way out?

Flooding in Frankfurt

Up to now, twenty people reportedly have died in the floods across central Europe after several days of heavy rains. Experts say that rising temperatures in Europe will accentuate rainfall, leading to more frequent and intense floods in many regions. This should be a reason to rethink the way we use the resources of our planet. One way to do so is to turn water, biodiversity, soils and forests – and most notably their capacity for storing CO2 – into tradable goods in order to create a "New Economy of Nature".

How to Fight Youth Unemployment

Tackling Youth UnemploymentFrance and Germany have proclaimed a "New Deal for Europe" in order to fight youth unemployment. Among the world's unemployed, young people have been particularly hard hit by the recent economic crisis. Youth unemployment rates are significantly higher than adult unemployment rates in both developed and developing countries. Global protest movements of young people are a manifestation of their lack of job prospects. GES-experts suggest to address unemployment among educated young people with compulsory on-the-job training and placement schemes and among uneducated young people with vocational training.
