“We know that our current way of life is no longer in harmony with the environment and nature. If we want to be able to count on a viable future for ourselves and for coming generations, we must change course.” In mid-July, DBU General Secretary Dr. Heinrich Bottermann tied the presentation of the 2015 Annual Report to this appeal. In the previous year the DBU supported 247 projects (in 2014: 274) and approved for them expenditures of 49.4 million euros (2014: 52.8 million).
