We are now one of 600+ companies in Schleswig-Holstein that are taking sustainability seriously. The successful kick-off of @connectshub_600dreinull has just taken place in Itzehoe.

This helps the poor rural population and it helps our rainforests: better harvests = less pressure on the forest. To be

The 1.8 tons of storage capacity per tree was calculated from the average of
