Service portal - Environment & nature
Erlangen is an environmental city - and not just since 2019, when the city declared a climate emergency. Environmental, nature and climate protection have long played a major role here. However, in order to effectively protect the atmosphere, flora and fauna, the soil and people from harmful influences, a lot of information, (funding) services and, of course, binding rules are needed. Here you will find everything you need to know - from species protection to environmental advice.
