Our world is in transition: climatic conditions are changing. At the same time, people are taking care to consume fewer resources than in the past.

Society is also taking a closer look at environmental conditions. This is right and important. After all, we must actively protect and shape the basis of our existence today in order to ensure the well-being of people and nature in the future.

The tree nurseries in Europe are important stakeholders in this process. After all, the woody plants we cultivate form the basis for natural climate protection and for green cities and landscapes worth living in. What could be more sustainable than a plant that blossoms and grows in the right place?

The production of woody plants in the tree nurseries also takes place at a high quality level. This quality guarantees optimum plant growth and at the same time protects the environment and conserves natural resources. The industry is committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

To help politicians and society better understand the sustainable principles and ideas on which production is based and what is needed to grow plants for a better world, we would like to identify and explain ten sustainability topics below.
