Book a public PV advice session in Düsseldorf

Book a public PV advice session in Düsseldorf Stadtwerke Düsseldorf helps residents plan rooftop solar without a city energy cooperative. Düsseldorf has no city energy co-op to join yet, so the public path is municipal advice: web seminars, phone sessions, and the seasonal Düsselblitz info van. What you can do - Book a photovoltaic advice web seminar or a free phone follow-up - Visit the Energy Service Centre when you need a counter, not a home visit - Catch Düsselblitz in a neighbourhood from spring to autumn, 10:00 to 13:00, for on-street questions about support and storage How it works Register online for a compact web seminar, then use the phone line if your roof still raises questions. Home visits are paused for now because demand is high. Phone energy advice: Monday to Friday 09:00 to 15:00 on (0211) 821 2121, or energieberatung@swd-ag.de. Why it matters A clear talk about size, storage, and feed-in beats guessing from ads, and it keeps solar decisions in the hands of people who live under the roof.

Collect cigarette butts during Kippenwoche

Collect cigarette butts during Kippenwoche R(h)ein-Kippen runs each 1 to 8 May as a week-long butt-collection action ahead of the September river day. Cigarette filters leach toxins into water; counting and removing them makes the problem visible without guilt-only messaging. What you can do - Join an open Kippenwoche group via RhineCleanUp MACH MIT or MainCleanUp - Organise a small team: use screw-top jars or cartons, wear disposable gloves, and tally what you find - Request butt bins, grabbers, and gloves from the programme where offered; some cities also set up collection columns to show scale - Read the R(h)ein-Kippen overview for background and dates How it works The action lasts one week each spring. You can collect solo or register a public group. RhineCleanUp reports community totals (for example over 250,000 butts in Düsseldorf in past years) to sharpen prevention conversations with councils and venues. Why it matters Butts are among the most common items on European riverbanks. A focused week trains the eye, keeps filters out of storm drains, and builds habits that carry into the larger shoreline cleanups in September.
