As the world changes, we act and set impulses \u2013 for forests, water, climate protec\u00adtion and biodi\u00adver\u00adsity. Since 1995, together with many supporters, we have been planting deciduous trees \u2013 and with them drinking water.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Water is a human right<\/h3>\n

Clean water, thriving forests and biodi\u00adver\u00adsity for a world that offers future genera\u00adtions a life worth living together. We know that every donation, every planting, every act of support \u2013 no matter how small it may seem \u2013 is part of something bigger.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

For deciduous trees that increase water<\/h3>\n

Every deciduous tree we plant not only takes root in the earth, but also increases the amount of drinking water on this earth. On average, one hectare of drinking water forest secures the lifelong drinking water needs of 800 people in Germany \u2013 and does so anew every year!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Mindful and conscious for tomorrow<\/h3>\n

Valuable poten\u00adtial that we humans have, and that helps us shape change in a future-proof way. Change begins where people under\u00adstand that forest and water are inextri\u00adcably linked, because natural, species-rich mixed deciduous forests are water collec\u00adtors, water\u00adworks and water reser\u00advoirs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Together for change<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Each of us brings unique exper\u00adtise, yet we are united by the mission to plant the future with every tree. Across Germany, we are supported by compa\u00adnies and their employees, fores\u00adters, environ\u00admental educa\u00adtors and volun\u00adteers \u2013 we would like to thank everyone once again for their fanta\u00adstic commit\u00adment!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Drinking Water Forest e.V. has been recog\u00adnised for its commit\u00adment<\/h3>\n
