A new NGO is born in Germany: FORESTERS 4 FUTURE.

Our German member, BDF, supports its actions and goals.

 

UEF wants to inform you about  FORESTERS 4 FUTURE.

Here is a communication from FORESTERS 4 FUTURE:

 

"Climate change is already noticeable today. We see its effects more clearly in our forests every day. It threatens the existence of forests that are systemically important.

 

We, as foresters and forest owners, are very worried about the forest ecosystem. Now is the time to reflect and act in a brave and committed manner. Sustainability starts with each individual! At the same time, we want to work to ensure that the principle of sustainability enters politics and society as a whole.

 

We want to support the Fridays for Future movement and have founded the FORESTERS 4 FUTURE in Germany. Our declaration can be found here https://www.foresters4future.com/en/9-2/#stellungnahme). An initiative thrives when people are involved, so we would be glad if you would support us and be an active participant in your country (https://www.foresters4future.com/en/9-2/#mitmachen).

 

We ask that this call be forwarded to all employees / members and invite you to stand up for our cause.

 

On the 20th of September the worldwide climate strike taked place, including demonstrations in all major cities."

 

You can also sign the declaration on the FORESTERS 4 FUTURE website.

 

Join the action!
