Zusammenfassung
The inducement for this paper was an ecological event week ("Climate Festival") at the Dresden University of Technology, Germany, in May 2010. The event was supposed to sensitize both students and employees to climate issues by showing how different aspects of everyday life have an impact on climate change. As one aspect, we calculated the Carbon Footprint for the varying meals in the canteen offered during that week and presented the results in various printed versions and hand-outs. This short paper introduces our motivation, approach and outcomes and also discusses some aspects for the further development.
