Lena Müller is doing her PhD in ecology on the impact of the climate crisis on mountain regions. In 2020, she became the first German woman to climb a route at grade E9 with the trad test piece "Prinzip Hoffnung" and traveled there mainly by train. As a freelance ecologist, she raises awareness for the topic of "climate-friendly outdoor sports" with articles, films and lectures. She works as a project manager at the VAUDE Sport Albrecht von Dewitz Foundation, which promotes projects on safe alpinism and the protection of the mountain environment.
