EM Members Join Annual Strike
This year ’ s global climate strike in Hamburg saw 25,000 people come out ! The strike lasted five hours , and there were speeches and live musical performances , but I guess it didn ’ t have the impact on the recent German election that people were expecting . However , even with the current issues , it is apparent Hamburg wants to move in a green direction .

Plogging for good
A Fun Way to Clean Up the City
On September 9 , a group of eight wonderful AWCH members met in Stadtpark to try out PLOGGING , a new trend that involves jogging and picking up trash . This event was put on by the official Hamburg Räumt Auf group , and we joined other people to help clean up the Stadtpark . There was not much jogging in our group but lots of getting into the bushes and trees and picking up big and small pieces of trash . We had a nice time together and got quite a " thank you ‘ s ." It felt good to clean up such a beautiful place , and we talked about other neighborhoods in Hamburg that could benefit from some quick group trash collecting !! If you or your club / business is interested in cleaning up , this local company is raising awareness and taking action ! Oclean -

We also had a few hardy cleaner-uppers who took to the Alster on canoe or paddle board to clean up the Alster . One of our AWCH members even managed to pull out a chair .
