Wood Protection

Wood is a “living” natural product – and therefore also perishable. That is why it is important to prepare the wood well before using it for construction.

Soil

The term soil refers to the animate outer layer of our earth’s crust. It is an important part of our environment and the basis for life on Earth.

Heat islands

Cities are particularly affected by climate change. Due to the large areas of sealed surfaces and dense building development, cities are more affected by rising temperatures in summer than the surrounding countryside.

Experiment: Grow your own seedlings

Some plants must be pre-cultivated before they are planted. A practical and cost-saving option is to grow plants from the seeds yourself. This way, in contrast to greenhouse plants, they are immediately adapted to the environmental conditions and are thus more robust.

Indoor greening

The planting of indoor spaces is important, as pupils spend most of their school day there. Especially in new school buildings, it is often quite dry due to the well-insulated walls, and children, young people and teachers complain about their mucous membranes drying out.

Positive effects of plants

Plants have many positive qualities. Through photosynthesis, plants produce the oxygen that is vital for humans and animals and purify the air as well. For many animals, plants form a space to live – from small animals cavorting in moss to large animals living in the forest.

Soil functions

Soil is one of the most important bases of life for humans, animals, and plants. Without soil, life on earth as we know it could not exist. Soil has a wide variety of functions, such as habitat functions and regulatory functions in the energy, water and material balance, filter, production, and utilisation functions for the supply of society, and carrier, storage, information, and cultural functions.

Soil types

The composition of soils is defined by the grain size composition of the mineral soil substance and the associated tactile properties. Depending on the grain size composition, soils can store different amounts of water, have a different nutrient content, are difficult or easy to work and are rooted differently by plants.

Plant care

In order to thrive and grow optimally, various factors are indispensable for plants. Plant growth factors include light, air, temperature, water, and nutrients. If all factors are sufficiently present, the plant can develop well.
