Climate protection and nature conservation cannot be separated: The predicted climate developments will foreseeably lead to changes in landscapes and a considerable extinction of species. Renewable energies contribute to climate protection and thus to the conservation of ecosystems by saving fossil fuels. However, these positive interactions between climate and nature conservation concerns seem to be hardly perceived at the local level. The aim of the interdisciplinary project is to demonstrate indirect and direct positive contributions of renewable energies to nature and landscape conservation.

  1. Demonstrate and communicate indirect and direct positive impact relationships between renewable energies and nature conservation concerns in an exemplary manner for groups of people for whom nature conservation concerns are particularly relevant (e.g. nature conservation activists), as well as for generally interested parties. To this end, positive examples will be identified and presented in the form of a  website.
  2. Develop a communication strategy to convey positive impact relationships.
  3. In this way, promote the acceptance of an environmentally compatible expansion of renewable energies.

Work packages

Work packages

  1. research and scientific analysis on indirect and direct positive-impact relationships between renewable energies and nature conservation concerns are recorded and evaluated.
  2. communication design and evaluation: Based on the research results, examples that are best suited for communicative mediation are worked out and a system is developed according to which the examples are grouped. A website will be designed and evaluated.
  3. strategy recommendations and handouts: Recommendations for a communication strategy will be developed jointly.

How can the expansion in renewable energies be designed in harmony with nature? The Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN) is providing expert scientific advice on this question to the Federal Ministry of the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (Bundesumweltministerium, BMUB). Research by the BfN always has a practical application and generates scientific results for advising government i.e. supplies a basis for decision-making for the preparation, implementation, monitoring and further development of nature conservation measures and the Federal Government's nature conservation policy.
