On 7th and 8th June, Prof. Dr Rüdiger Glaser, Sarah Gruner and Svenja Wittpoth (University of Freiburg) lead an excursion to the Murg Valley industrial corridor as part of the INTERREG Clim’Ability Care project. Mario Mohr, Head of the Rastatt Regional Council, and Fabienne Körner, Managing Director of the Mittelbaden Energy Agency, introduced their tasks and objectives. Martin Schursch, climate protection manager for the city of Rastatt, also discussed aspects of the urban climate.
Other topics included flood protection and renaturalisation of the River Murg, which were presented in Gernsbach by Mayor Julian Christ. Energy generation, biodiversity, the transformation of winter tourism and the pollution of watercourses and succession along the Lothar Trail rounded off the spectrum. On the following day, the project partners presented the status of their work.
Many thanks to all the participants for these interesting and rich in exchange encounters!
