Berlin to Strengthen and Make Tree Nurseries Future-Proof
Berlin, 11:00 AM, November 25, 2024: The Berlin House of Representatives has passed a motion to strengthen and make tree nurseries future-proof. The motion, titled “20/13913: Strengthening and Making Tree Nurseries Future-Proof,” was initiated by the Green Party and supported by the Social Democrats, the Left Party, and the SPD parliamentary group.
The motion calls for a comprehensive package of measures to support tree nurseries in Berlin. These measures include:
- Increasing funding for tree nurseries: The city will provide additional funding to tree nurseries to help them cover the costs of labor, materials, and equipment.
- Expanding the use of urban land for tree nurseries: The city will identify and make available additional land for tree nurseries, both within the city limits and in surrounding areas.
- Providing technical assistance to tree nurseries: The city will provide technical assistance to tree nurseries to help them improve their operations and adopt new technologies.
- Promoting the use of native trees and shrubs: The city will encourage the use of native trees and shrubs in tree nurseries, which are more resilient to climate change and local pests.
The motion also calls for the establishment of a working group to oversee the implementation of these measures. The working group will be composed of representatives from the city government, tree nurseries, and other stakeholders.
The motion is a significant step forward for tree nurseries in Berlin. The city is home to a large number of tree nurseries, which play a vital role in providing trees for Berlin’s streets, parks, and gardens. However, tree nurseries have been facing a number of challenges in recent years, including rising costs, competition from foreign nurseries, and climate change.
The measures included in the motion will help tree nurseries to overcome these challenges and continue to provide Berlin with the trees it needs.
The motion is scheduled to be voted on by the Berlin House of Representatives on December 15, 2024.
