Experience Renewable Energies II (Glücksburg near Baltic Sea)
Description: Energy transition without dependencies on gas, oil, coal - (how) is that possible? The Center for Sustainable Development "artefact" is 100% self-sufficient in renewable energies. In Glücksburg on the Flensburg Fjord near the Danish border, the non-profit GmbH operates a guest house built in clay architecture and a climate park for tourists and other visitors. They organize projects and seminars on global learning. The building, the climate park and the nature experience area have to be repaired again and again and extended by new stations. Support the park with other volunteers to stay attractive for visitors.
Type of Work: Repair work and further development of the renewed climate park for visitors, planting of a water reservoir, maintenance work such as painting, weeding, etc. on the grounds.
