In spring 2024, the Department of Public Works and Environmental Management embarked on a groundbreaking initiative as part of the Environmental FY23 Natural Resources Management contract for U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz in Germersheim, Germany. The focus was planting trees on Germersheim’s designated picnic area. But this was not a mere replication of the past. Instead, it was a thoughtful selection of tree species that could better withstand the evolving climate conditions. “We want to replace them with climate-resistant tree species and thus preserve the special character of the picnic area that our tenants can use. Tree planting is an effective measure to protect the climate and nature,” stated Johannes Haid, Germersheim Army Depot safety engineer and building biologist for the Department of Public Works and Environmental Management.
