Main Projects / Activities

Prior to the official founding of the artemis project, we conceptualized and organized a street art event in Berlin in order to save 200 old trees. Parts of the project were: "Human chain against chain saws" with 1.500 people, occucupation of trees, active climate protection through spreading of seeds that are not genetic engeneered. "Tree fairies" promoted the respect for nature: they connected with passers-by to raise their awareness for climate change and handed out these seeds to motivate the people to plant their own trees. The special aim of the project was also to involve the Turkish and Arab community of Berlin.
