Projects – Stiftung Zukunft Jetzt!

The conservation of the Earth's current ecosystems is the basis for the survival of all life, including humans. The protection of biodiversity, the environment and the climate, as well as issues of global justice, are closely linked; everything we do has an impact on everyone else - and vice versa. Sustainable progress can therefore only be realised globally. Together with strong partners, we, the Stiftung Zukunft jetzt!, want to activate effective levers in all crucial areas as soon as possible to makes sure that our planet can be put back on a stable track before it’s too late. We think and act according to this formula of life: climate protection = nature protection = species protection = animal protection = human protection – because one isn’t possible without the other.
