Rettet die Bäume am Tempelhofer Damm!
Kundgebung am 27. September 2025 um 12.30 Uhr, gegen die Fällung von knapp 200 Bäumen und den Verlust weiterer 100 Bäume am T-Damm durch Wurzelschädigungen während der Sanierungsphase 2027 bis ca. 2037. Es sollen nur etwa 28 Bäume übrig bleiben!

Hello Pete, it has been such a pleasure to meet you in Poznań! What a pity I will not be in Berlin while you're there. I would have loved to show you around. See you you in Toulouse?

Three days in Strasbourg on my way back from Urban Sketchers Lyon to Berlin. A very nice afternoon with Strasbourg sketchers Lolo Wagner and Nathyi Regner, who taught me how to say “cheers” in Alsatian: “S’gilt!” 🙂
