2024: 21.8 hectares of near-natural forest conver­sion

Hamburg, 21.01.2025. Trinkwasserwald e.V. thanks all supporters for the wonderful commit­ment in 2024. Follo­wing the drought of recent years, which claimed over 500,000 hectares of forest, with support from compa­nies as well as 589 adults and 40 children in 34 environ­mental protec­tion actions, a total of 21.8 hectares of forest were replanted – prima­rily on damaged areas created by drought and bark beetles in recent years. A bright spot! In total, 82,916 trees of 19 diffe­rent species were planted. These drinking water forests will in future increase ground­water recharge by 17,440,000.00 litres per year.
