From Natural Phenomenon to Disaster
Most of our earth is covered in water. Without water, no life. The water on our earth is in a constantly renewed global cycle. By evaporation the water gets into the atmosphere, by atmospheric circulation the evaporated water is further transported across long distances and returns to the earth as precipitation. Climate change, however, alters this hydrological cycle. Climate change intensifies the disparities in the global water supply and increasingly causes droughts and floods, respectively. We speak of low or high water when it falls below or rises above the average water level considerably.

Copyright
Copyright is subject to constant change to keep up with technological advances. This film enables the viewer to grasp the basic principles of this extremely intricate matter. By way of introduction, the film defines what an author is, what kinds of works there are and how long a work is protected on principle. Then the fundamental rights of an author are cited and it is shown how these are exploited in our times. In the third chapter, the respective rights are illustrated by way of practice-oriented examples of books, photos, music and films. Here, of course, an emphasis is laid on the field of education, taking into account the latest case law within the EU and Austria in particular. A further chapter highlights the problems arising with the Internet and goes into the citation law and pirate copies. All in all, in this way the viewer is made familiar with the most important basic terms and their meanings. Comprehensive worksheets and additional accompanying material invite us to deepen our knowledge of the subject.
