Moor protection in the Mettmann district: Now active for our nature!

Langenfeld, Deutschland - An exciting event is imminent! On 7 p.m. , the district house opens its doors for a public discussion event by the nature conservation advisory board. This revolves around the essential role of the bogs in climate protection and the national strategy for your protection. A topic that not only interests experts, but also touches the hearts of the citizens!

Two years ago, the Federal Environment Ministry presented the national moor protection strategy, which is now being actively implemented in the Mettmann district. The Further Moor near Langenfeld, a small Heidemoor, is revitalized by the EU-financed “Atlantic sand landscapes”. Here the Biological Station Haus Bürgel and the Mettmann district restored valuable moor and heath areas. The Hildener Heide also benefits from joint efforts to rehearse and ecologize.

The chairman of the nature conservation advisory board, dr. Alfred Bruckhaus , opens the event with an revealing lecture on "carbon sinks in the forest, field and moor". Afterwards Fei Hüne will explain the need for the national moor protection strategy by the State Environment Ministry. Moritz Schulze from the biological station will present the bog in the district of Mettmann and its potential. According to the lectures, the participants are invited to take part in an open discussion. Questions and ideas can be asked here!

The nature conservation advisory board, consisting of 16 volunteers, has already carried out numerous successful discussion events and would like to contact the population directly with this event. The goals and intentions of landscape protection should be clearly conveyed in order to create a common awareness of the importance of nature. Be there and actively shape nature conservation in your region!
