Workshop - Module 2: Climate
Tiny Forests, also known as microforests, are small, densely planted forests that serve as climate buffers, carbon stores and green oases in urban areas. The concept, developed by the Japanese ecologist Akira Miyawaki in the 1970s, makes it possible to create self-sustaining habitats in a small area.

Many of these microforests are planted in community planting campaigns by volunteers or by individuals and associations - they represent a low-threshold opportunity to take action for the climate and make cities greener.
In a three-part workshop series that can also be taken individually, the Heinrich Böll Library invites you to get to know this exciting concept better. The series examines the ecological basis of Tiny Forests, the connection to permaculture and examines opportunities for implementation in Berlin.
This module focuses on the physical basis of the climate crisis and the growing importance of removing CO2 from the air. The aim is to create a better understanding of what tiny forests, but also allotment gardens, for example, can contribute to climate stabilization.
