Münsterland is climate land

The Münsterland is climate country: under this title, we present ourselves as a region that stands for THE GOOD LIFE - today and in the future! This includes treating natural and human resources with care, operating in a climate-friendly way and creating healthy living conditions. We want to make the Münsterland more future-proof for THE GOOD LIFE for current and future generations. We can all make a contribution. Help us and make the Münsterland a climate-friendly region!

We are the districts of Borken, Coesfeld, Steinfurt and Warendorf, the city of Münster and Münsterland e.V., which coordinates the region's climate protection work as a network centre, as well as the state company NRW.Energy4Climate. With a Münsterland-wide campaign for climate protection, we are bringing these issues to our region together with the local authorities.

Andreas Bothe, Regierungspräsident Bezirksregierung Münster:

"We are all aware that the fight against man-made climate change is a task of the century. For NRW, too, this poses major challenges for which solutions must be found urgently. In order for NRW to be successfully transformed into Europe's first climate-neutral industrial region, we must all pull together. One requirement is to think of economic policy and climate protection together - the protection and preservation of our natural livelihood, good jobs as well as social security and justice are not mutually exclusive.

For climate protection to succeed, commitment at the local level is indispensable. It often helps to take a look at the region: what good ideas, activities and projects already exist next door? With the "Münsterland is Climate Land" campaign, we have a platform that links partners throughout the Münsterland region. The municipalities that have committed themselves to the climate campaign are making a joint contribution to climate protection in our region.
