Climate awakening
Stand: 21.11.2024
With Climate Awakening, Erlangen is on its way to climate neutrality. Find out which measures are to be implemented and what you can do personally here.
Full speed ahead - moving towards climate neutrality
Now the climate awakening can begin. Everyone is called upon to help implement the measures and thus contribute to the climate transition. The city administration is leading the way and is starting to implement 14+ measures in 2023, while at the same time the other measures are being fleshed out so that they can be implemented in the coming years. However, this requires further expansion of human and financial resources. This year, 17.5 new positions were created for Climate Awakening and the financial resources for climate protection were further increased.
You can read about the current implementation status here .

Roadmap Climate Awakening
A unique project has been launched in Erlangen with the Climate Awakening Roadmap: an entire city is embarking on the path to climate neutrality. The city of Erlangen decided on a new and bold path: together with the scientific community, citizens and relevant stakeholders , several meetings were held to find the best climate protection solutions for Erlangen: a jointly developed roadmap with 41 climate protection measures was created, showing how climate neutrality can be achieved in Erlangen.
In autumn 2022, the city council decided to make the measures in the Climate Awakening roadmap the basis for further action and to further specify them in the coming years.
Climate city contract
Climate protection can only be achieved together: citizens, companies, associations and many more are called upon to join Climate Awakening. You can do this by signing the "Climate City Contract" and making your own contribution to climate protection. The Climate City Contract is the place where the climate protection contributions of citizens, companies, associations, science, initiatives and many more are published. It is a growing documentation and at the same time a pool of ideas on how each and every individual can make a big difference in everyday life.
