These two events illustrate how important citizens' commitment is for the environment. Such actions are not only an important form of nature conservation, but also offer the opportunity to raise awareness of environmental issues. Climate protection projects in which volunteers work are essential to sensitize the local population. Topics such as energy supply, recycling and biodiversity are as well as the focus as the fight against pollution. Scientific projects dealing with the data collection and observation of ecosystems complement the broad activities and offer practical training in one of the most important areas of our time.
