Dülmen Leads in 'GroundAir' Competition for Green Urban Innovation
Dülmen, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, has gained recognition through its participation in the 'GroundAir' competition, organized by Provinzial. The competition encourages innovative projects that combine climate protection, sustainability, and civic engagement in cities and towns.
Citizens can participate in the 'GroundAir' competition by uploading before-and-after photos of unsealed surfaces at bodenluft.net. The competition offers cash prizes and vouchers for garden centers as incentives. Dülmen, known for its 'Grüner Schlauch' project, focuses on increasing green spaces, eco-friendly mobility, and sustainable urban planning to improve the city's microclimate and combat climate change.
Dülmen's mayor, Frank Hilker, emphasizes the city's goal of becoming more livable and sustainable through the competition. Detmold, another participating city, supports the action by providing recycling centers for worn-out stones and arranging pick-up for materials in special cases. The competition aims to open up sealed surfaces for plants and animals, improve the city's climate, support flood protection, and enhance the quality of life in Detmold.
Dülmen's participation in the 'GroundAir' competition has brought the city to the forefront, showcasing its commitment to communal climate change mitigation and urban innovation within the Provinzial Rheinland's business region. The competition encourages cities to explore creative solutions for a greener, more sustainable future.
