Connect Climate Berlin: August 2025 Edition 🌍 🗣️ ˎˊ˗

Planning a sustainability event in Berlin? Submit it here.

Greetings from your slightly guilty newsletter editor who's been MIA!

Yes, yes, I know what you're thinking: "Another late newsletter? What is this, BVG's scheduling department?"

But before you unsubscribe faster than someone fleeing a tourist trap currywurst stand, let me explain.

I was off gallivanting in the countryside and hugging trees (spoiler alert: I lasted exactly 2.3 days before desperately searching for decent WiFi and a proper Flat White that doesn't taste like it was filtered through bark. Yes, I’m a snob).

Speaking of timing, here's your friendly reminder that it's never too late to join a sustainability event!

Unlike the last S-Bahn of the night (which you will inevitably miss), climate action doesn't stop running. Whether you're fashionably late like this newsletter, or you just discovered that separating your Gelbe Sack from your Biomüll is rocket science, there's always room for one more at Berlin's sustainability table.

But wait, this newsletter is getting juicier!

Starting in September, each edition will feature someone from our actual Berlin community sharing their sustainability journey.

Think: your neighbour who's figured out how to grow tomatoes on a Kreuzberg balcony, not another tech bro explaining how blockchain will save polar bears. We're talking real locals with real stories.

So grab your reusable coffee cup (preferably not from that one café that charges extra for oat milk because "it's premium"), settle into your favourite spot, and let's dive into what's happening in our wonderfully weird, sustainability-obsessed corner of Deutschland.

Because finding your next climate event shouldn't require the carbon footprint of scrolling through seventeen different websites! I've done the digital legwork, so you can do the actual legwork for these events.

P.S.: Claude AI is so much more witty than I. I don’t claim all these puns.

Check out this month's roundup of events on climate and sustainability in our wonderfully chaotic capital.⤵
