Title: Tree irrigation in Berlin: Sebastian Herges volunteer for climate protection

Berlin-Sebastian Herges is an extraordinary hobby runner who has organized his watering can “Berliner trees Wasser” in his hand for every Berlin half marathon, his watering can. His concern is clear: trees need water! He wants to promote this awareness not only in his residential area, the south-Neukölln horseshoe settlement, but also in all Berlin districts and from all people. Public water pumps can be used, and the Gießkompass Giessdenkiez.de provides information about which trees need water.

The effects of the climate catastrophe do not stop at Berlin either. Fall rain, drizzle with tropical temperature fluctuations or long -lasting heat waves without sufficient precipitation are now the order of the day. In order to do justice to climate protection in public spaces, Sebastian Herges decided in 2008 to use his entire free time on a voluntary basis for watering young trees in the south-Neukölln Hufeiseniedlung. In addition, he is also active professionally and an exemplary father.

Sebastian Herges uses various network options to spread his message. He operates his own Facebook group called "Berliner trees Wasser" and is active on platforms such as Giessdenkiez.de, vostel.de and in a slack channel. His commitment has increasingly attracted attention, so that he regularly receives press requests.

If you want to get to know Sebastian Herges personally, you have the opportunity to meet him at your information stand. On a voluntary basis, he looks after stands at various events such as the "Berlin Klima Tag" on the RAW site, the event "Climate Protection Partner" of the IHK Berlin and the "Berlin volunteer exchange" in the Red Rathaus. All actions serve the purpose of sensitizing people to water from trees and working together for climate protection. Sebastian Herges calls on a non -violent commitment: "I condemned and condemn the last generation."

The public tree casting campaigns take place in Sebastian Herges' residential area, the south-Neukölln horseshoe settlement, usually take place every first Saturday of the month. Further information on his actions and engagements is available on platforms such as vostel.de, govolunteer.de and giessdenkiez.de under "Berliner trees Waserer".

Sebastian Herges has already received two official recognitions for his commitment in local climate protection by Martin Hikel, the district mayor of Neukölln, and was supported by the CDU-Pankow BVV for his work. In addition, he was able to win prize money of 1500 euros in the innovation competition of the volunteer capital. He is currently officially nominated as an ambassador for local climate protection in the neighborhood in public space by the Federal Network for Civic Engagement (BBE). Sebastian Herges is also a member of the SPD and brings his expertise as a climate protection activist.

Media such as the BZ-Berlin, the Berliner Morgenpost, the RBB24 evening show, the Berliner Zeitung, the SPD party magazine, the Berlin Woche, the Berliner Abendblatt, EuronewStV, RBB888, the Berlin Kurier and RadioFlux have already reported on Sebastian Herges. The Tippberlin led a live interview with him in July 2023.
