Sustainability 2025: Oberhavel relies on environmental and climate protection!

At the beginning of 2025, the citizens in Oberhavel show a strong interest in a sustainable lifestyle. Many people in the district rely on environmentally conscious resolutions after the warmest year has been remembered in 2022 since the beginning of the weather records. The district of Oberhavel is actively involved in environmental and climate protection and offers numerous initiatives.

A central point to promote sustainability is the nine Euro student ticket that facilitates children in the district to access public transport. The district council encourages private households to improve their waste separation and organize a call to young people every year to participate in an upcycling competition.

initiatives for climate protection

In Oranienburg, a climate protection concept is implemented in schools. In addition, a publicly accessible exchange shelf in the community center represents a platform to share resources. The online change card in Oranienburg lists resource-saving shops and eight schools take part in a climate protection and energy saving project that will continue until autumn 2025

Another fruitful project takes place in Hohen Neuendorf, where the “Market Schewhrzer” network enables the genuator to buy food directly from the producer. In addition, citizens have the opportunity to actively participate in the care of biodiversity. Zehdenick is working on a concept for municipal heat planning, which is to be implemented by May 2025 with costs of around 70,000 euros. In Velten, around 6000 casting sponsors take care of the irrigation of trees in dry months. Kremmen promotes the exchange of energy and climate protection at the energy rampart, while the Mühlenbecker Land provides 77 tips for climate protection on its homepage.

These developments underline the importance of a sustainable lifestyle at both local and national level. While Oberhavel takes a variety of measures to promote climate protection and sustainability, the recycling of packaging is emphasized as an essential factor for environmental protection.
